Tinker to Evers to Chance -- what should a Cubs fan look at?
I'm a big Cubs fan and have been enamored with the past year's team, for obvious reasons. However, I only really collect 1933 and 1934 Goudeys from the pre-war era.
If I were to combine my love of Cubs and baseball cards and start to look for Tinker/Evers/Chance cards to maybe display somewhere in the house or at my work desk, what cards do the Net54 experts say to look towards, all price ranges from $0.01 to $1 mln (dreaming isn't illegal, right?).

Look at T205 Gold borders. Very nice cards from 1911.

I've always loved the T202 (not mine):

Very nice. I am up to 134/154 of my cubs T205 fronts/ reverses. What backs are your cards David?

I've always been partial to the T206 portraits:

I think the T205 grouping suggested by Ken is the way to go. The Evers, however, can to tough and expensive. Why not include a T205 of 3rd baseman Harry S. to complete the infield.. He undoubtedly participated in a few double plays himself.

Might I suggest that for the final display you incorporate an original box score? They are easy and inexpensive to get, and add a nice touch.

You could always print out the poem and do something nice with the style and framing.

"big" fan means fat fingers.
I noticed immediately, and tried to change title and could not without duping post. So it lived. Edit: done. Thank you for the net54 UI lesson. Last edited by Tennis13; 03-30-2017 at 12:09 PM. |
