Top 10 Most Important Baseball Cards

[Archive]

Posted By: JimB

Somebody mentioned on another thread about a particular card being one of the top ten most important cards in the hobby. Anybody want to throw out their own subjective list.
Here are my first thoughts:

In no particular order

T206 Honus Wagner
1914/15 CJ Joe Jackson (I like it more than the E90-1 - personal bias)
1952 Topps Mantle
Just So Cy Young
T206 Cobb/Cobb back
1933 Goudey Ruths (Pick your favorite; I like #53)
1934 Goudey Gerhig #37
N28 Anson (I like it better than the N172s, the Mayo, etc. - personal bias)
E90-1 Mitchell (seems to be fading, but once was the "Wagner of E cards")
1933 Goudey Lajoie #106
T206 Plank

Honorable mention: E93 Wagner (I had to include at least one E93 )


I know I am forgetting important cards and when I read other's lists, I will want to change my own, but this should get things started.
