While I've warmed up a lot to the great B&W cards of the 19th century, I'm still partial to examples with some color lithography.

Well, I bought my first one, so I guess it's this:
Recent Ebay Purchase (http://www.ebay.com/itm/7-n184-Kimballs-Sports-Champions-Tobacco-Cards-in-this-one-lot-/121413103288?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEWNX%3AIT&_trksid=p2047675.l2557&nma=true&si=u%252BGaZ9wfqwXH8hIBgJxE3ALFkws%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc)
The one with the bottom torn off is Hardie Henderson - Base Ball Pitcher.

Sure shows as a beater. I like some of the others, like Juvenile Roller Skating Champion! Saw the 1887 Allen and Ginter Cap Anson PSA 3 last week on eBay and almost clicked Buy-It-Now at $1200. That seller seemed to way underprice the item, and it was gone within three hours after being listed. That would have definitely been a splash into the pre-1900 market.

I cannot decide which of these cards I favor. This entire set of 50 cards are my favorites.....so, here are both.

I don't have the good fortune to own one, but one of my all-time favorite cards has always been the N28 Kelly.

Of the cards that I have never owned, I also would have to pick the Just So Tobacco Cy Young, as well as the Peck & Snyder James Creighton and the Henry Reccius Honus Wagner.
Of the cards that were at one time part of my collection (all long gone), these are my favorites:
