Favorite Image on a Trading Card
2 Attachment(s)
Just thinking about my favorite images:
1) 1969-70 Topps Chamberlain - I love everything about this card, great player, great color, the headband, the blue satin jacket, the cocky expression, seems as if he's jumping right out of the oval and it's a tallboy. 2) 1933 Goudey Ott - Look at that mug. Enough said. |

T3 Turkey Red Ty Cobb is the best image on any type of card.
I wish I still had mine... |

That I own? Probably anything from the Red Heart series. Specifically this guy right here:
https://cdn.sportscollectorsdaily.co...eartMantle.jpg That I don't own? This entire series is beautiful but there's just something about Matty. Probably the movie star looks he had! https://dyn1.heritagestatic.com/lf?s...oduct.chain%5D |
Way too many cards immediately come to mind.

Tough to choose between these two...... I think the first one might be altered.

T3 beauty. Not a superstar player; however, I’ve always liked the image.
Honorable mention for: 53 Bowman Pee Wee Reese |
It's a postcard but love the image.
Get out of my face! https://luckeycards.com/ppcunc1915eversgriffin.jpg |

I'll have to think about this a bit more, but this guy would be in the running for me.

I will never own this card
But the 1914 Boston Garter Cards are amazing Graphics This is the Favorite Image to me |
I don’t own one, but the 33 Goudey Pepper Martin is one I’ve always wanted just because of the look of it.

Peter beat me to the 53 Bowman Musial but I have a couple of other faves....
On the pre-war side I had no reason to buy this 1911 Obak Curt Bernard other than the wonderful background showing Chutes Park. Attachment 470833 Hard to choose a post-war card other than the Musial but I'm partial to the '78 Murray rookie. It's just different and it's 100% Murray. Attachment 470832 Thanks for all the other great cards posted in this thread! |

Tough call but I’m thinking…:

surprised no one has posted this one yet
The great Johnny Grubb in a classic Grubb pose.
https://static.wixstatic.com/media/5...66f866~mv2.jpg Seriously though, this Grubb is pretty sharp. https://static.wixstatic.com/media/5...386227~mv2.jpg |
I think the 1912 T227 Cobb is a beautyhttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...fc245f20d4.jpg

I'm like a broken record on this one. It's been my favorite from the day I saw it for the first time. 1911 Zeenut Halla.
Mine is significantly trimmed, but still makes me smile every time I look at it. Eventually I'll upgrade it when the right one comes along. Bill |

I must really like this one because we've been together for 30 years (got it at the infamous 1991 Anaheim National). |

thought it would be cool to have that much hair coming out from under my cap.
Now that I’m older, think it would be cool to have hair. |

No longer own mine, but from the internet: Classic 1957 Topps baseball pose at bat rack, with a great old-time television camera in the shot.

Richards isn't mine but I have always thought that it is a great image. Terry too - and he is mine.

Mine is even rougher than this one, but I love the image.

1974 Topps had two of my favorite action cards:
https://photos.imageevent.com/exhibi...s%20Seaver.jpg https://photos.imageevent.com/exhibi...Garvey%202.jpg 1964 Morinaga Katsuya Nomura: https://photos.imageevent.com/exhibi...2%20Nomura.jpg Such a classic baseball catcher pose. For those who don't follow Japanese baseball (from Wikipedia): During his over 26-season playing career mostly spent with the Nankai Hawks, he became one of NPB's greatest offensive catchers. He was awarded the Pacific League MVP Award five times, was a Best Nine selection 19 times (basically, the best catcher in the game), became the first NPB batter to win the Triple Crown in 1965, and holds the record for second-most home runs (657) and RBIs (1,988) in NPB history to go with 2,901 hits |

In terms of looks, the 1933 Goudey Lou Gehrig takes the cake with me today. It captures Lou in all his glory. Just a truly beautiful card. But the 1933 DeLong cards and 1953 Bowman color cards are gorgeous, too, IMO. I love Whitey Lockman in the Polo Grounds, in living color. Bobby Morgan's pic shows off the Brooklyn Dodgers blue perfectly, and Pee Wee Reese firing over a sliding ballplayer (some say Gil Hodges) at Vero Beach is maybe the perfect baseball card.

The look of Ed Cicotte on his 1914/15 Cracker Jacks- perfect for him
