Posted By: <b>Dave F</b><p>I was really going after just posting the portrait shots...but couldn't find a recent enough real scan of a E103 or E107...so the E93 and E95 joined the mix

Posted By: <b>Joe D.</b><p>Dave,<br /><br />I am not a big fan of most of the cards you posted.<br /><br />Out of the ones you posted, the e93 is by far my favorite.<br /><br /><br />Of the attainable variety, my favorite Matty cards<br /><br />1) E92 (or similar)<br /><br />2) E93... This one is growing on me and may overtake the e92 pose.<br /><br />3) E103<br /><br />4) How about the 1915 Cracker Jack? nice portrait card!<br /><br /><br /><br />I don't care for M116s in general (pastel, what were they thinking?)<br />I don't care for the T206 portrait - don't know why, maybe because he's looking too far to his left

Posted By: <b>John</b><p>T206 portrait for shear beauty is still the champ for me. I used to not love the E93 so much. But after seeing Jim’s I would put it up there as one of the most beautiful cards in our hobby that’s a great card!<br /><br />As for my fav Matty pose I love this pose of all of Matty’s poses the best, a close second is the M110 Matty pose.<br /><br /><img src="http://photos.imageevent.com/piojohn3/ebay/large/uncper20matty.jpg"><br /><br />

Posted By: <b>JimB</b><p>I agree with Paul to a certain extent on one point. I don't normally hate T205s, but I do like the T205 Matty WAY more than any other T205. It has a certain quality that really captures the era and his character that gets me.<br />JimB

Posted By: <b>Paul</b><p>I've always liked the E93 & M116 blue background. Heck, hard not to like any Matty card.<br /><br /><br /><img src="http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e195/pgisme/matty_m116-1.jpg">

Posted By: <b>Jason L</b><p>of any of his cards. This will save me a bundle of dough over the course of my lifetime!<br /><br />But I would have to go with the e92 horizontal if I had to pick one.

Posted By: <b>JimB</b><p>Leon,<br />Is that a crease coming from the left side just above his head? Either way, that is a beautiful card!<br />JimB

Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>Yes, it's a light wrinkle that doesn't go into the back of the card. That's why I said that in the wrong hands it would be a 5.5-6.....I bought it several years ago from Scott B......

Posted By: <b>Bill Todd</b><p>What really gets me about these cards is how they show completely different personalities:<br /><br />E93--Aw, Mom, can't we stay out here 'til it gets dark?<br />E95--Move back from the plate, you *&#$&*).<br />M116--Yes, Sir, I'll use my railroad fortune to take excellent care of your daughter.<br />T205--Nobody saw the slippery elm under my brim.<br />T205--haHA! They'll never find her body!<br /><br />And by the way, I love the lop-haired pictures. Makes the players look like such kids. The blue Cronin '33 Goudey, the Cliff Bolton '34 Diamond Star, all just great.<br /><br />Bill

Posted By: <b>quan</b><p>seeing jim show off the e98 matty makes me wish i'd bought the card myself...at least you still have a nice OP Young scott.<br /><br />re thread: i'm coming around on the e93 matty but i was never really into the matty 1910 cards. my favorite is probably the quirky e98 pose.
