Posted By: <b>Zach</b><p>Hey just thought it would be nice to see scans of everyones favorite cards in their collection. My three favorites are my t206 Mathewson(first "big" card I got, my t206 Cobb which I recently aquired from ebay, and my e101 Cy Young which I also recently aquired.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.imageshack.us"><img src="http://img75.echo.cx/img75/3199/net547jd.png" border="0" width="752" alt="Image Hosted by ImageShack.us" /></a>

Posted By: <b>Jeff Lichtman</b><p>That seems to be a very undergraded Mathewson; why only an 80?

Posted By: <b>T206Collector</b><p>The card is "only" an 80, I belive, because of the less than perfect centering and also the corners are a little fuzzy. There is also a light hint of a tobacco spot on the reverse. But otherwise, this card is magnificent -- the jewel of my collection.

Posted By: <b>Josh K.</b><p>Zach, <br /><br />That cobb looks much better in your scan than it did in the auction picture. I think you got a steal. Here are a few of my favorites:<br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1117411532.JPG"> <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1117411557.JPG"> <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1117412555.JPG"><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1117556793.JPG"> <br /><br />But they will all soon take a back seat to the following card that I will be purchasing from another board member:<br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1117162339.JPG"> <br />

Posted By: <b>Chad</b><p>But if I did, my T205 and T206 Mathewsons and my 45-46 Felices Martin Dihigo would be my favorites. The 19th century cards I see posted on this site are just amazing. I'm stricken with awe and, well, some envy, too.<br /><br />--Chad

Posted By: <b>Anson</b><p>Scott, you may want to reduce the image size down a bit. I think it's choking on the file size.
