Posted By: <b>Steve Dawson</b><p>Thank you Phil. I picked it up earlier this year from David Bryan.<br /><br />Ted was my dad's, and his dad's favorite player. My dad and his two brothers all went to the same high school (Herbert Hoover High) in San Diego within a span of 1-9 years after Ted, and my grandfather worked at the school. So, Ted has always been my favorite player among players I never actually saw play.<br /><br />Steve

Posted By: <b>David McDonald</b><p>My favorite "R" card would be the autographed '34 Goudey Gehrig portrait posted in the recent "Triple Crown" thread. (Yes, Matt W., it is my card and I feel lucky to have it. And, if the economy keeps doing what it's doing I may have to garage sale it for a case of Spam or a wheelbarrow full of Weimar dollars). [Edited to add that I just saw that Heritage has a similarly signed Gehrig #37, a real beauty <a href="http://tinyurl.com/3kmnxl" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://tinyurl.com/3kmnxl</a> ; so much for unique cards, might have to knock a few cans of Hawaii's favorite luncheon meat off my price]. So many great "R" cards, so hard to choose. My next favorite "R" card is a toss-up between the '33 Goudey Ruth Batting and the Sport Kings Grange. Love everything about both cards.<br /><br />Steve Dawson: That Goudey Premium Ted Williams is sublime!<br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/June08/33Goudey_Ruth.jpg"><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/June08/SK_Grange.jpg">

Posted By: <b>ErikV</b><p> Tough choice, but can't go wrong with Gehrig.<br /> Scanner acting up a little. Card actually has <br /> richer color to it. <br /><br /> <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1223059179.JPG"> <br /><br />
