What would make your 2011?

[Rob D.]

What one card -- for this thread choose one and only one -- would make your year if you were able to add it to your collection? Let's include a stipulation that it has to be attainable. So unless you've got the coin for something like a T206 Wagner, that can't be your pick.

After giving it some thought, my choice is a Boston Garter Lajoie, shown below (image is from vintagecardprices.com).

What's yours?

[Kawika]

Just one? Ah, gee. In similar threads in the past I have stated my wish for a Horner Cabinet Joe Wood to land in my lap but that ain't happening. This year's nominee is a Dormand Postcard Moose Skowron. Never seen one for auction, vcp.com shows no sales, but they made a gazillion Dormands and they are not as ancient as, say, Kalamazoo Bats so there ought to be one out there.

[terjung]

Agree with David... tough to narrow it down to just one, but I'll go with this one. Adding an E107 Chance would make my year.

I need two cards to complete my Old Judge New Jersey subset (all players who were either born in or died in New Jersey) - Buster Hoover and Frank Hankinson.

I would obviously take either, but since I can pick just one...

[Mikehealer]

Good thread. Mine isn't a high dollar item, but does seem tougher than it should be. Chief Meyers w/El Principe back.

[MacDice]

A 1926 or 1928 Earl Averill Zeenut

[ChiefBenderForever]

Since spending a night with Demi Moore isn't an option I'll have to go with a W600 Bender either pose !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[cdn_collector]

That's easy -- T206 Gibson with a Hindu back.


Regards,

Richard.

[Touch'EmAll]

The 1921 Babe Ruth Exhibit card - in PSA 5 - yes, that's the one.

1919 Arbuckle/Vance
1922 Lazzeri
1923 Waner
1924 Cochrane

[glchen]

E103 Wagner or T206 Magie would make 2011 (or 12 or 13!)

[Batter67up]

This is my goal for 2011 in a SGC 40.

[vintagecpa]

A lower-grade E95 Cobb is my 2011 centerpiece goal.

Clayton

[Michael Peich]

Armstrong
Booles
Bourquise
Cooper
Cowell
Martin
Pope
Stubbe.

Here's to everyone's wish coming true!

Cheers, Mike

[wrapperguy]

I need 26 cards to complete 10 sets so picking one is tough, but a 1923-24 Exhibit of Babe Ruth would be awesome.

[dabigyankeeman]

This is one of the most bizarre cards I have ever seen, Babe Ruth holding a bird, and believe it or not, I love this card. In the condition below, its a price that I have paid for 3 cards in the past (about a grand), so although I cant afford it at this moment, I can hope.

[t206wagner]

A low grade T206 Dahlen Brooklyn.

[tonyk1975]

I really want my first Cobb for my T206 collection. I'll be looking for a SGC 10 red or green portrait.

[Republicaninmass]

move my dupes, and complete the 1911 turkey red set

[Exhibitman]

"The 2011 World Series Champion New York Yankees"

"Pacquiao v. Mayweather deal signed"

[JamesGallo]

A Boston Store Ruth. Any condition will do but a SGC 10-30 would be ideal.

James G

[sox1903wschamp]

Lot's of snow which has not been an issue this Ski season.

Card wise, any of the E107 Boston Americans that I still have on my list. Just narrowing it by 1 in 2011 would be great.

[rdixon1208]

E90-1 Speaker

[chris122868]

If I could finish off my E254 colgan set,I need just 4 cards to finish the MASTER SET.

[Jacklitsch]

I'm good for just one:

1911 Zeenut Fullerton

That would make my year.

[refz]

well. picking up my hours from work, quit living paycheck to paycheck and collect at least 1 hal chase type i dont have for this coming year. that would be grand. cheers all.

[T206Collector]

The one I missed in September...

[the-illini]

I would love to add any from the list below...

A Harry Wright card
A Jim McCormick OJ card
Zeenut HOFers

Any cards from these sets:

M101-6 Sporting News
V89 William Paterson
1926 Kut Outs
W503

[nebboy]

For me a T205 with a Drum back would be nice.

[refz]

Wish to get my overtime back at work, and ease the weekly struggle. Honestly just to pick up one Hal Chase type or t206 back i do not already have, that would make my 2011.
