I have always really liked this T206 McIntire card, and this scan makes me happy as it reminds me that I like them so much I have three of them.

And that Harry sure can-can dance.

I just discovered this card in a stack of Murads that I have not looked through since the housing bubble. No idea that I owned it... found money makes me happy.

When I go back and look at the pics in this thread, I smile a lot. Great stuff, guys.

As someone who loves big borders, shown a million times for a reason...

Leon, I like big borders too, as is evident on my E220 National Caramel card of Raymond Schmandt.

A regular, bigger size border E220 of Kopf is shown for comparison purposes.

Basketball HOFer Clyde Lovellette's real RC, when he was at the Olympics in 1952. He's the one on the left.

I smile at Leard's dangerous batting stance, or whatever you might call his pose.

My local library had a thin blue book called something like "Most Valuable Baseball Cards" when I was a kid, but it was really more focused on significant or odd vintage cards. Wish I could find that book again, it talked about the Hustler T206 claim, the E79/E95 ad piece, and lots of other non-money-centric notes of hobby history. I remember there was a whole page dedicated to this T213 Donlin and it's unique caption. I still can't figure out how they came up with the 7 years, but it's a card I love and is cheap.

Great cards. E220s are all over the place.
Big borders....

Thanks Leon, and neat Croft's. I typically end up with something that has little to no borders/backgrounds like these.

I used to own a Darby Chocolates Chief Myers cut-out like that, Brian. I still like die-cut cards. From a design standpoint, this is one of my favorites:



The fight sucked but the card is freakin' great. It is the size of a 1952 Topps card, to the top of the eagle silhouette.

Another die-cut I love:



Two known examples, this one and one with the stand torn off.

This card isn't die-cut but I ran across the image and decided to put it up because it always makes me wonder "why was Jack Dempsey punching a blind guy?"

Matty dark cap is one of my favorite cards. Combine that with a tough Coupon back and I'm happy.

Superb card. Great centering. High grade for the series.

Centering is key! This is probably still my favorite, attainable card.

Any Matty sideways makes me smile, including this E101.

Brian (but I frown if his backside is not upright)
