If you ever want to let that Plank go, let me know :D

I post this way too much, but it is easily my favorite beater and it fits the thread.

It's got about every technical flaw.

This is honestly the coolest card I've seen on this board. Don't you have the E107 Plank, Young and a few others too?

Thank you. ...and yes, I do have the others you mentioned as well.

Brian,
That Wagner is phenomenal!!! Here is my favorite "beater".

my favorite beater
 

:D

cost me a few shillings, but worth every little bit!!;)

Jim,

Your n167s make me drool every time I see them. Fantastic card!

Always liked this one:

Here's my faves!!
 

They fit the category :D

The creases on that Cobb must be more prominent than the scan is suggesting, eh? Is there something else I'm missing?

I'd collect SGC 10s like that all day...

Richard.

Richard,

Nope, the creases are exactly as shown on there. Thought about cracking it out and sending it back in, but I love the card and, like the Cincinnati Wagner, don't want to let it out of my sight :D

Give some consideration to ACA, then. Not only might you qualify for a grade bump, but if that's also an unreleased version of the card, they'll know!

Richard.

One of my WaJo "beaters."

I've shown this before, but its my favorite beater because it's likely one of the rarest cards I own. I was offered this card many years ago because I ain't too picky about condition and the dealer just couldn't find it in his heart to throw it away, but also couldn't find a buyer:D

Here is my Red Hindu Tannehill......................what, don't snicker, it really is a Red Hindu!

Lovely Day...

I know I'm fully in pre-war violation by a few years, but I remember finding ol' Lou here about 17 years ago around my 20th birthday. I really felt he was the gem of my collection and showed him off to the family like a prize horse. I was strictly a modern guy till he showed up and he changed everything for the better as far my collecting went. I still love him beat up and all and he's going nowhere anytime soon. :)

I carry this in my wallet for hahas. Most likely the most hideous card I've ever had. was part of a MUCH better lot not long back.:D

My favorite beater :
 

Fav Beater :

OK, you guys talked me into showing off my pride and joy beater in honor of the Red Sox collapse this season.

Great Ruth!

t227 and yep its a ruff one

That Ruth is awesome Mike! One hell of a beater.

Putting a card like the Ruth up is UNFAIR. its still a great card. Damn you..haha. :):)

AAaaaaaaaahhh ................ Y' Upp ............

Ouch! I just got kicked in the face by that vintage 3D card! :)

Cool one, Scott. Didn't know that you collected Zeenuts also

Wow, those sure are nice beaters. Thanks all for sharing and participating, it has been fun to watch.

These three were sewn into something at some point. There is still some thread in the cards.

Thanks,

AndyH

Beater this
 

I have plenty of great beaters, but this one came to mind as a favorite:

Hard to pick just one, but I settled on this. My first T206, Polar Bear back.
And yes, the entire upper left corner is nearly off along the crease that edges into his head. if not for the tape it would probably have come off by now.

Also in the running - 69 Jackson rookie -my first card. and a T206 red cobb Carolina Brights.

Kidding!!! I didn't have $17k to pick it up at auction. A very cool card though. I'm loving this thread, keep it going!

Just when I thought I'd seen it all with respect to T206....

More Holland Creameries
 

Brad - These beaters go nicely with your Goslin! :)

Beater - Howard Savannah
 

This is a beauty. And for sale if you want it. :)

For those with something against 3rd party grading...
 

I slabbed this to ensure it wouldn't fall apart...
