Overrated: T206 John Titus. Why, god? WHY?!?!?

Underrated: W517 Babe Ruth (pick 'em). Been loving the Diamond Stars recently, but these 3"x4" strip cards are everything that virtually all the other strip sets aren't, detailed and nicely aesthetic. Getting lumped into that category hurts.

Favorite: 1953 Bowman color Stan Musial. That image puts me right there in a different era, it's so alive.

Least Favorite: T206 Spike Shannon. Was this intended to be a Picasso homage? (I don't even know what to make of the paper strip "cards.")

Wait until you hear about 1952 Topps Tony Bartirome.

Unreal. It's like Zevon's "Mr. Bad Example" come to life.

Default My take

Overrated - 1952 Topps Mantle as stated several times above many factors!

Underrated - 1916 M101-4 Ruth’s to me he is the undisputed GOAT and unlike most I love black and white prints.

Favorite - shocker here, I love the e121 series of 120 Ruth Photo Montage, ahead of it’s time to me and I like the three images of him.

Least favorite - E98 "Cy Young". Irv Young and they didn’t even pitch with same arm lol, so no reason to even pretend lol. Close second E90-1 Joe Jackson normally has terrible registration, lips all over and I don’t like the purple background.

Overrated - 1989 Topps Gregg Jefferies - I’m still waiting for this card’s value to finally reach the promised land and bring me the riches I deserve!!!!!!!!

Underrated - 1973 Topps Willie Davis - My God!! He’s getting plinked on a baseball card!!!!!!!!!!

Favorite - 1974 Topps Ron Santo - This card looks like a fan’s snapshot and is unlike any other card from the era. It just doesn’t fit the look and feel of anything else, so it stands alone.

Least (why is this word written like a Brit?) Favourite - 1958 Topps Sneezin’ Brooks Robinson - Photog, get that man a handkerchief!!!!

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

The Score Jefferies is destined to explode too. Hold tight! God he was disappointing.
