T206 Wagner without a doubt. In particular, a PSA 5 copy that I was fortunate enough to see in person a few years ago. It was incredible. I am told there are 3-4 Wagners in the ex to ex/mt range. I suppose any of those would be nice.

Although not technically cards, I would go for one out of the following 3 (I can’t decide which one): 1849c Knickerbocker Daguerreotype; 1859 Knicks vs Excelsiors Panoramic or the 1860 Excelsior Team Shot.

Gonna change my answer to the Jim Creighton card.

I like to sit outside, drink beer and yell at people. If I did this at home, I would be arrested. So, I go to baseball games and fit right in.

Pete Hill Cabanas or Punch
Charleston or Lloyd Billiken
Gibson Toleteros
Claxton Zeenut

I think I'd take the Charleston Billiken. He very well might have been the best player ever.

If I could only own 1 card, I would not be a baseball card collector. I would be collecting something else. So, the card I would have would be the orange colored variation Ruth R319 Goudey #149 in a PSA 9, or better holder. This would be in the same shallow drawer in my collectables cabinet (in the vault) as the one coin I allowed myself when I sold off all of my collection of that stuff too.

But what would I then collect? Vintage gold dentures perhaps. Genuine original silver bullets! Anything other than pictures of dead people. Enuff of that with the coins and cards.

Not sure why it appeals to me so much (over more scarcer and expensive cards), but I'd like to own a mid-grade SGC40-60 T206 Plank. The background blue offsets his portrait so nicely.

It doesn't hurt that it would be another notch in my t206 HOF Portrait belt either.
