best looking Matty, Young, Johnson, Cobb?
 
Posted By: <b>Joe D.</b><p>alright...<br /><br />I am looking to put together what I deem are the nicest cards out there for Matty, Young, Johnson, and Cobb.<br /><br />Not necessarily the most expensive or rarest cards (and I will probably look for SGC30s, no need for super high grade) --- just trying to decide which cards I thik are the coolest.<br /><br />This is very subjective. I would love to hear opinions... or better yet see them if you could post an image of your favorite card.<br /><br />My favorites right now...<br /><br />Matty - E92 or similar<br />Young - T206 Portrait<br />Johnson - 1915 Cracker Jack<br />Cobb - Haven't decided (help me out with this one!)<br /><br />Thanks,<br />Joe<br /><br />

Posted By: <b>Brian E.</b><p>As for the Cobb...my vote is for either the T206 Bat Off or the D304<br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1148223197.JPG"> <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1148223186.JPG">

Posted By: <b>Joe D.</b><p>it doesn't matter which kind...<br /><br />I am just looking for what I would think is the ultimate cobb card. (again, not necessarily the most expensive... just the one I think is the nicest).<br /><br /><br />... that D304 is pretty nice and I do like the set. Right now I guess that would be the front runner.

Posted By: <b>Jerry</b><p>My Favorite Cobb is the hard to find T227 but it's hard to beat good old red or green Portrait T206's.<br />

Posted By: <b>Joann</b><p>Cobb - E95 or E227. Maybe Josh can post the scan of his E227. Great card.<br />Matty - T3<br /><br />A few days ago I would have said no opinion on Young. But that was before Hal posted the scan of his E107 in the High Grade Low Grade thread. Wow. Guess I'd go with that one.<br /><br />Johnson - the portrait - T206 or Ramly.<br /><br />Joann

Posted By: <b>Paul</b><p>For Cobb, my favorite is the image on the Novelty Cutlery PC. Also found on the e121 series of 120, & W501.

Posted By: <b>Seth B.</b><p>Gotta agree that the Cobb T227 is the prettiest card out there with the Georgia Peach on it. It's going to be hard to get one of those for your collection, but they're beautiful cards.

Posted By: <b>jay behrens</b><p>Matty- t205<br />Johnson- t206 portrait<br />Young- nothing stands outs for me<br />Cobb- I think the t206 bat off is butt ugly. For the ultimate Cobb card you have to go with t202 with Cobb in the center panel too<br /><br />Jay<br><br>I like to sit outside, drink beer and yell at people. If I did this at home, I would be arrested. So, I go to baseball games and fit right in.

Posted By: <b>Jim</b><p>I have always thought the T206 Johnson-Pitching card was a gorgeous card. I love the blue and white colors. This card often gets overlooked as the portrait card is so popular.<br />I also have liked the Matty-Dark cap card for the same reasons.<br /><br /><br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1148229495.JPG">

Posted By: <b>Seth B.</b><p>Thanks for posting that, Hal. That T227 is a great looking card, though Ty's nose is a little larger than I remembered it for some reason.

Posted By: <b>Zach Rice</b><p><br />Wagner-J=k Candy, Voskamps, E300, and E135.<br />Mathewson-E300 and T206 dark cap<br />Young-I'm with Jay, nothing really sticks out. I'll say Just So Tobacco because it is his only 19th century card and pictures him younger and skinnier.<br />Johnson-H813 Boston Garter<br />Cobb-not too sure, many nice cards but not too many that really stick out to me. Maybe his E270 Colgan's red border or E300.<br /><br /><br />Uh oh...Jay and Colgan's red borders all in one post together....<img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14>

Posted By: <b>E, Daniel</b><p>I've always felt the 21' Oxford Cobb flies unbelievably far under the radar and is a completely mesmorizing image.........and Dave Vargha's listed above is an absolute screamer!!!!!!!!<br /><br />Johnson 14' Cracker jack<br /><br />Matty E93<br /><br />Young E107, preferably Hal's....<br /><br /><br />Wow, what a wishlist. Good Luck!<br /><br />
