Posted By: <b>Bob</b><p>Brett- My new scanner will just not let me get a good scan of the ball. Cards come out fine as does anything flat but the ball won't work. The digital camera picture looks fuzzy too. I believe Julie has a scan of it, maybe if she is reading this she will oblige by posting it.<br />Bob

Posted By: <b>Josh K.</b><p>Bob,<br /><br />Have you tried taking the digital picture in the macro setting? It will allow you to get a focused picture upto probably about 12 inches away.

Posted By: <b>Al Crisafulli</b><p>Thanks, Jim. I bought the Feller raw on Ebay a couple of years ago. It's a PSA 7 now, but it's as nice as any 8 I've seen, and is the cornerstone of my 38 set.<br /><br />-Al

Posted By: <b>Joann</b><p>Oddly, sadly, and interestingly - nothing. Wow. There's a realization. I seriously went through every card I own (didn't take long), and decided that there isn't one that I would absolutely positively say I would never part with. <br /><br />I think it's because much of what I have is fairly common - things I could reasonably anticipate finding again down the road. By that standard, the two closest "never leaves" would be my N172 Ganzel (because it took me so dang long to find a Detroit N172) and my SGC 50 E97 McIntyre (because I'm not at all sure I could find such a nice version of a difficult set, and a Detroit player to boot - definitely the pride of the collection).<br /><br />I think there are many many ways to ask the question "What's your favorite card (that you own)?". I have several ways I ask myself (will maybe start a thread on one someday), and each brings a different answer. This one I thought was a very interesting spin on the theme.<br /><br />Good thread!<br /><br />Joann

Posted By: <b>Anonymous</b><p>I doubt that I will part with any card in my collection; I only collect cards of my great-grandfather, Frank "Bullet" Miller. However, my most cherished card is an Obak T4 of him.

Posted By: <b>martin dalziel</b><p><br /><br />Only thing in my collection that i am 100% sure will never go anywhere is my son Jamie's 300+ card collection of Ken Griffey Jr. Yep, shiny crap. Jamie passed away two yars ago aged 18 and he loved that collection. We did a lot of card shows together, so the cards mean so much more than just the cards. It'll go to family when we're gone.<br /><br />I still like my things and am back to buying more things, but things is all they are any more. Hopefully i didn't put a downer on the thread.
