I am looking for an eye appealing Grover Alexander card as I currently have none. But tough finding one I like with good eye appeal. Suggestions? Thanks.

I'd probably go with the 1914 Cracker Jack, though it is very pricey. I settled for a 1913 National Game, which was still high, but quite a bit lower than the CJ. The Sporting News issue is okay and while I'm not a huge fan of strip cards, there is a decent portrait of GCA on one.
There is also a nice colorized card of him in the 1961 Golden Press set.
Good Luck
