Keeping in mind that this is the prewar (WWII) part of the forum, regarding blue chips, just take a look at the 25 highest priced lots in the REA auction ending tmrw: Cobb, Wagner, Young, Johnson, Mathewson, t206 and t205 rarities, and 1914 CJ HOFers. Enough said….
Regarding post WWII vintage, I have no doubt that Mantle, Mays, Robinson, Aaron, key 1952 topps cards, etc fit into the blue chip discussion as well. I just don’t play in that playground much and don’t know if the fact that these cards tend to be more available/common compared to cards from before 1940 makes a difference.

Thanks Tony & Jay. I paid as much for it (about 1 1/2 yrs ago) as I sold a ‘14 Cobb SGC 4 for a few years before. They just keep going up

For pre-war items to be at the top of the list when they are the only ones on the list, well, the probability of such a result does seem to be strong.

Blue Chip
People are quick to use top tier “HOF” members as a reference to cover a swath of the great names…IMO, a few well known issues / cards featuring Joe Jackson are / should be considered at the blue chip level…despite his unfortunate HOF status.

Color me a "BLUE chip"....my favorite color is BLUE
First TOPPS Mantle (greenish BLUE) ............................................ last TOPPS Mantle (with very rare BLUE background)
 ------  My favorite 19th Century card   Star card of my "complete" SWEET CAPORAL Factory #30 set (468 cards)   My favorite T206 with a very rare back  .  A unique T206 John McGraw   I could not find a BLUE card of Babe Ruth, so I improvised........   Stan the Man (1949 BOWMAN and 1949 LEAF)  ------  And finally....there is BLUE....and there is no BLUE   I thought this thread needed some humor TED Z T206 Reference .
