What is your most Aesthetically Pleasing Card:
 

Some cards are true works of art...

I'll start this thread off with one of my two oldest 'art pieces':

What is your most Aesthetically Pleasing Card:
 

Here’s mine now in the appropriate thread.

Just based on aesthetics. The scan doesn't do this justice.

I dont own many cards and I do not own a scanner:o

I'm really not a big Musial fan, but I feel like this might be my most aesthetically pleasing card:

It doesn't get any better than the Turkey Reds

it isn't baseball; but I think the N28 set (regardless of sport) are some of the most attractive cards ever made.

There's something especially incongruent about bare knuckle boxers in a pastel that's additionally appealing.

Just one ??? Damn !

I'll stick with Clark Griffith. I like both of these.

The Iron Horse and the Mick

Color Contrast, Registration & Centering
 

For me, it’s not a high dollar card or even a megastar’s card. It is the 1941 Play Ball Bobby Doerr. This is card is simply a work of art. It’s more pleasing to look at than my high dollar cards.

I apologize that I’m not currently home, and cannot upload my card. However, I’m sure you all know the card.

I know we are talking pre-war predominately, but I just love this Musial. Probably the prettiest card I own.

I’ve always loved this card too.

I'll add a few more 'beauties':

Turkey Red Stahl
 

One of my favorite Turkeys.

For those not familiar, here is a placeholder scan of the card from the internet until an image is posted.

I have dozens of cards that I consider at the peak of aesthetic accomplishment. For the purposes of this thread, I have chosen this 1910 Obak of Coy. It has a great, unusual 'choking way up on the bat' pose, possesses a crystal clear and detailed artistic depiction of the player, and it helps that I have always been a sucker for skies on fire.

That is absolutely gorgeous!

1911 Obak Burns
 

Here is one of my favorites: 1911 Obak Burns!

Nearly impossible to beat the Stahl and Cobb Turkey Reds. I'd put the T3 Fred Clarke in that elite category as well.

But outside of the obvious, below is another one that I always thought was simply gorgeous (e90-1 Rebel Oakes).

I'm also a big fan of the 1941 Play Ball cards, with their art deco designs and vibrant pastel colors. Just picked up the Dolph Camilli (which may be my favorite in the set).

Is that Dan Dugdale?

Here's the roster...

I've always loved the CJ's

One of my favorites. It just feels like a quiet moment.

No pic handy but n162 glasscock!

These are my two favorites aesthetically:

W711 Cincinnati team issued set I find to be very eye appealing. I like the colored individual in front of a black and white background. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...91cf6c8cf4.jpg

For me it’s hard to beat all the things that are going on in this card:

For me this is the best and most artistic set...

Maybe this one for me...I'm a sucker for sunsets in the T206 set (the CB back is easy on the eyes as well, I think).

Mr Carter had an eye fir Centering...
So i'm told ~
