Post your 5 favorite cards that you own
6 Attachment(s)
I was looking through the archive at a cool thread where people post their 5 favorite cards of all time and decided to start this one. I have a tendency to focus more on the cards I want (but don't yet own) than the ones already in my collection. So post the 5 (or so) cards in your collection that are your favorite as of today. I couldn't pick 5, so I'm posting 6 :D

Don't have pics on me but my top 5 favorites I own would be...
M116 Honus Wagner Pastel PSA 2 T205 Mathewson SGC 4.5 1915 Cracker Jack Lajoie PSA 3 1933 Goudey Ruth 181 SGC 4 1933 Goudey Gehrig SGC 3.5 |

Man, five is tough. So since you posted six, I'll play copy cat. :)
The first five, and one that should have made it six. Hard to believe old Cy didn't make the cut for the initial HOF class. http://i101.photobucket.com/albums/m...psa762ecf4.jpghttp://i101.photobucket.com/albums/m...ps96ddae95.jpghttp://i101.photobucket.com/albums/m...ps1c3adc7c.jpg http://i101.photobucket.com/albums/m...ps6f58cb1e.jpghttp://i101.photobucket.com/albums/m...ps36c56bef.jpghttp://i101.photobucket.com/albums/m...ps2507733e.jpg |
I'll go with these guys.

Insane cards everyone- David M, Sean, Matt...WOW!
I keep only a small amount of cards in my collection at any given time. I like rotating things and keeping it fresh...a "25 card collection", I suppose. Here's a few I'm lovin' these days... |
Beautiful cards, everyone.

Mantle may be the only full name signed card, I believe my Wheat is the single highest graded signed HOF T206 in existence, and the Feller I drove to Van Meter to get it signed in person a year before he passed.

I've received several emails from Net54ers asking me if I really "paid a penny" for my 1952 Topps Mantle (Post #17). So, here is my response to anyone here interested....... I was 14 years old in the Fall of '52. Since the Spring of '52, I had acquired 100's of 52T cards (spent a lot of nickels buying 5-cent wax packs, traded a lot, and won a lot of cards while flipping). And yes, I was very fortunate. My folks stored my original cards (1947-1952) while I was away 4 years in the Air Force. Included in the 5-cent pack with Mantle were these four Hi #s...... http://i603.photobucket.com/albums/t...fhermspenc.jpg http://i1255.photobucket.com/albums/...sBBwrapper.jpg Cannot pass up this chance to display 3 more of my favorite goodies............ http://i1255.photobucket.com/albums/...0xMattySGC.jpg http://i1255.photobucket.com/albums/...psbd913b5a.jpg.http://i1255.photobucket.com/albums/...ps026d7a07.jpg http://i603.photobucket.com/albums/t...encobbp150.jpghttp://i603.photobucket.com/albums/t...cobbp150bk.jpg T-Rex TED . |
