Cousin Ray:
 Eliminating his cards from consideration, I got this card when I was a boy at a show in Anaheim. Slabbed it many years later. My first T206 and will stay with me until they pry it from my cold, dead fingers.

Like others, mine can change pretty often, but everytime I look at this one I'm just in awe by the clarity and detail.

Like most of us, this can change on any given day, but I feel like if I had to sell my collection and keep one card, this would be the one (without regard to cost).

One of my first five prewar cards that I purchased, and of the 5 it is the one that really captured my attention (wow...a great looking old card of an all-time great hall of famer...how is that even possible for a kid like me!). Always at the top of my list, and this would be the one card I would cling onto if I had to part ways with all my other cards.
Unlike Adam though, I would make sure that I would not be clutching onto it during those final moments, as it will remain unslabbed, and rigor mortis might do a number on it. Brian Last edited by brianp-beme; 10-27-2023 at 12:29 PM.

I sold my Matty Black Cap after holding and cherishing it for maybe 30 years. That card was always my unquestioned favorite since it was my first prewar card (and a beauty as well).
Now I look at my Bender collection when this type of question comes up. I could pick any of my Charles Bender cards but I think this T205 Gold Border one has always been my favorite.

I also have to toss this one in because I think it is one of the most beautiful cards ever made:
