my top five (i stuck to cards except one):
DS Greenberg (my favorite card, and also the first one i bought back in 1989 when i started collecting) Copper Plate Wagner (his rookie IMHO) love the Copper Plates! T227 Cobb (from Halper) C57 Lester Patrick (early hockey cards are awesome, esp black and white) and my favorite non-jersey memorabilia piece, iconic Cheevers game worn mask (sorry if too big, was all i could do to figure out how to past the pictures!) |

Cheevers was the goalie for the great Orr-Esposito Cup winning teams in the 1970s, his mask was famous for showing where he would have had stitches if he didn't wear a mask (like the goalies did until just a little before his time). One of the early masks that had an image on it rather than just white with cutouts for eyes and mouth.

Awesome "low grade" cards! Their eye appeal is better than most 6s and 7s I've seen for sale lately!
And Paul, awesome Wagner "rookie". It looks like you have the full National Copper Plate bound collection...there are many other "rookies" in there that I would love to have...nice one and oh so rare! and Kenny, if you ever get tired of looking at your Wheat minor league cabinet, let me know...since it's only #4 on your list, maybe there's hope

Picking a top 5 is a very difficult undertaking, so I cheated and limited my selections to pre-war individual cards/cabinets (e.g., no team photos/postcards, press photos, etc.). And even then, this was a difficult task!
(1) 1873 Warren Studio CDV - Jim O'Rourke (2) c1943 RPPC - Roy Campanella (3) 1893-94 Perkins Studio Cabinet - Hughie Jennings (4) 1898 Polensky Cabinet - Fred Clarke (5) 1914 University of Michigan Photo Card - George Sisler

Nothing unusual here -- just still enjoying the hunt for nice examples of some of our hobby's iconic cards.
But centered, please. Always... 08001.jpg 10001.jpg33004.jpg 34001.jpg48001.jpg

Top 5
Tough to narrow down to only five but I will try;
1. Barnum and Baily circus elephants playing baseball, this a tougher variation of the similar but smaller version that has both P.T. Barnum and Bailey in the upper left hand corner 2. I have all three Tuxedo's but if I had to pick one, I like the Walter Johnson the best 3. Spalding catchers trophy 4. Peach advertising 5. 1894 Pittsburgh Pirates schedule |

Thanks, i do have the bound copper plate set (minus 5, including the Anson, i had to fill in, but accomplished!). i think that is the most amazing set, the pictures are awesome and they have the full description and information on the back. i consider them the first cards and they are perhaps the earliest ones with any player info? so many rookies in there. i have the M-101 sporting news supplement set too. some different player selection (as an aside, I managed to get a few Delehantys at very reasonable prices while completing, for some reason he is listed in the guide, and was priced at auction, as a common ..but it's Ed Delehanty). Steve Verkman broke up a Copper Plate set recently and still has a bunch for sale (minus some of the keys but still many HOF's left). was able to finish the set from his sale. i love that Walter Johnson Tuxedo above! amazing.

I can only post in doubles (I can't post one image on n54. Can only do through the layout app), so I will do four of my favorite Cobbs.

@Orly: I don't know who has the biggest smile? Cobb or you acquiring that Cobb.
So glad you got it. Indeed a fine piece.
