A T206 with the multi-strike (Lash's Bitters) back. Part of this is price, part is availability.
I'll probably get one some day. They're hard to find; however, there aren't that many people looking for them. Ideally, one will surface at the Philly Show and I can work out a cash/trade deal.

W600 Cobb. Had a chance at one years ago but I bought the W600 type 1 Wagner in same auction instead. I don’t regret the decision, but I would like a w600 Cobb one day

E92 etc. Mathewson. Combination of reasons -- too out of register, price insane, or just didn't act fast enough.

My elusive list is 90% a scarcity issue; possibly stuff that doesn't exist or that is 1-of-1, though there are a few elusive cards that I cannot possibly afford mixed in there, like the Capital Candy & Cracker Thorpe or a 1923 Exhibit Ruth. No hope of winning those at auction.

1930 Baguer Chocolate Joe McCarthy that's not beat the hell up.
I've seen examples come and go over the years, but most are in terrible condition. I don't mind some wear, but I want the front clean and the back stamp at least mostly intact.

1913 Zeenut Jimmy Lewis, last card I need for a complete player run. I have all the extremely tough/rare cards in the run but this one eludes me (shaking my fist at the card gods in the sky).

Just scarcity. Couple of last Mays issues that I can’t find. Although I suppose it’s also possible that if one of the current owners puts it on the market, they might ask for more than I’m willing to pay.

W530 Wagner - its the last card I need for my set. Its a scarce card and when becomes available, I never seem to have the money.

1910 Old Mill Joe Jackson.
My holy grail card and it is both rare and pricy. Approx 8 years ago or so a Authentic Alteree was for sale but I was not liquid enough to go after. Ryan picked up a beautiful one a few years ago well beyond what I could at that time. Hopefully next time around I am in the game and some of my current cards might have to go to get it. Of course if the price is right.

A nice looking and affordable t206 George Browne and Kid Elberfeld Washington variations. All the ones that fit my criteria go for wayyy too much at auction.

Thanks Adam, never seen any Capital Candy cards before, let alone the Thorpe. They are cool! Maybe somehow a collecting miracle will occur and a Thorpe will end up in your collection.
