Default 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':

1888 N28 Allen and Ginter MONTE WARD SGC-80.jpg

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

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).

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

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

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.
