Default Your Top cards from 1909-1911?

I'm lucky enough to own 4 tobacco HOF cards.

1) John McGraw (t206 . Portrait)
2) Joe Tinker (t206 . Bat on shoulder)
3) Fred Clarke (t206 . Bat in hands)
4) Tris Speaker (t205 card)



What are your 4 best or (better yet favorite) Hall Of Fame tobacco cards from 1909-1911?

The last comment in the original post was to show T cards. Yes, Mr. Young is my top card currently. That said, I am biased but I could look at this card every day and all day. So happy I had credit with Heritage when I won it (they were about to tee up my collection for sale.)

While Tobacco (T) cards were mentioned in the OP, I figured with the M and E cards already posted, why not? (I also wanted to see it again )

I know they aren't all T cards, but my favorite HOFers from this period are...

e93 Mathewson
e98 Clarke
t206 Ed Walsh
t206 Marquard (hands at side)

Thanks,

AndyH

Awesome cards all, congrats. However, Michael, yours are average at best -- Two HOF Hindus, an HOF miscut Lenox and a high grade Cobb is best you can do??!! We need better effort in 2018.

The original post said top cards form 19109-11, not top T-cards. So I guess these fit the bill.

I tend to agree with you, and yet it’s still flying under the radar in my opinion.

1. I'd have to agree.

And I didn't even see Sam's post when I made mine.
