Matt - great pickup on the e100 Weaver, impressive!

Love the KBat cabinet also.

My favorite: La Azora card of a great image of Ty Cobb sliding.

As a big Cobb fan, that is a great shot! Thanks for sharing,

I'm not sure how one defines best, but this is one of my favorites due to the great eye appeal. It's also one of the supplements that is infrequently seen.

That is beautiful. I've been looking for one of those for a while now without any luck, so you are correct about it being a tougher one to locate.

Great Ruth P/C. It hurts me every time I see it that I let that one go. At least it went to someone who really loves it so that's a good thing.

Thanks, Phil. Yea, I love this card. I can't believe I own it, and it's the only card in my collection that I consider irreplaceable. It's currently in a good home (in a climate controlled safety deposit box ).

Some unsigned ones...





And some signed ones...

One of my favorites and I got lucky - no one bid on it - Greg Manning Auction at the National in 1994.

Total is around 7" by 7", it's in my safety deposit box, so can't go grab it to verify.

My highest graded Buchner HOF'er

[tedzan]

19th Century favorite....tough decision, so here are both of them





Two early 20th Century favorites

1904 Eastern League Champions....the year there was no World Series in Major League Baseball





One of the toughest of the 27 white-bordered red Cobb's





I had to include these two favorites simply because their cards represent a year in which their records may never be broken



Post WWII favorite

1949 LEAF......NOT 1948 !


Last but not least....after all, I only paid a penny for my Mantle in the Fall of 1952




Please excuse the multiple "favorites" .... but, I find it hard to believe that anyone can just select a single "favorite" card from their collection

[Robextend]

My two favorites...at the moment!

[bh3443]

This is from 1980....... my favorite's the Aaron Rookie! The 3 T206 Cobbs are Sweet Cap, Piedmont and Polar Bear. There's an 1888 Boston schedule, too!

This has been my favorite since the day I got it. It's a small albumen:

[ChiefBenderForever]

To tough to choose just one but anyone of these would fit the bill !!!

[Mikehealer]

Nice cards Johnny. I'm like you, tough to choose just one. Here are three that I consider my best.
