We know that the card companies keep a keen eye on the forums and hobby trends. I wondered to myself what if this card was made?

Each side features one superstar of today, one superstar of yesterday, one legend and one high roller.

I'd TOTALLY grab some popcorn and watch that at auction.

I also made a card showing a bunch of players that are collected hardcore but may not necessarily fit in the card above (aside from Griffey) ... sure to make (fr)enemies out of at least 8 different people.

Anyway, on an open market, how much do you think the first card I showed goes for at auction if it were real?

very cool cards! I'd like to see an all pitchers one. And I think it'd be cool to have one panel AL and the other NL...how about:

Left panel (NL) - Clayton Kershaw, Greg Maddux, Sandy Koufax, Christy Mathewson
Right panel (AL) - Justin Verlander, Randy Johnson (Mariners), Nolan Ryan (Rangers), Walter Johnson

also along the same lines I'd tweak your first one up there and also make it a bit more generational.

Left Panel (NL) - Bryce Harper, Griffey (CIN), Hank Aaron, Jimmie Fox (CHC)
Right Panel (AL) - Mike Trout, Derek Jeter, Ted Williams, Babe Ruth

I wanted to put Mantle on there but 3 Yankees? meh. Also thought about putting Jackie instead of Hank. Both would be awesome.

Great ideas! I'd also like to see some team based ones.
