What is your favorite post war card that is NOT of a HOFer
 

Hey guys,

I'm curious what your favorite post war non-HOFer card is. Mine changes regularly but right now I think it's the 1984 Topps Don Mattingly.

What's yours?

Thanks,

AndyH

.

For me, that's easy...
 

1971 Topps Munson

2 great choices so far. I really like both of those cards a lot!

Hey Andy!

(been meaning to welcome to to OBC BTW)

Here's my favorite non-HOFer , but as you say...this list does seem to change frequently

I have always loved these two cards.

Here's mine, 1976 Hostess Dave Parker.............

I'm probably cheating with this one...

otherwise, it would be this...

That's the same picture used for Dave's '75 Topps card. Why do you like this better than the regular issue?

I collect cards from 1948-1960 this one is a classic

Don't have a scan and haven't owned one in years but mine has got to be the 1965 Topps #207 Pete Rose........then the '64 Topps Rose

Hey Brian!

No worries about the delayed welcome man. And regarding changing my mind about this topic frequently, I'm already beginning to be swayed in new directions after seeing other's favorites posted here. :D

Best.

I always loved the '76 Hostess set in general, maybe the red, white and blue bicentennial look and Parker was my favorite player of the era so........

I agree with Matt. :)

Don't have scans of mine so sorry. But either the 1950 Bowman Al Rosen, the '52 Topps Pafko, or the '52 Topps Minoso.

Roses are red, Violets are blue, I'm narcissistic, How about you ?

Prolly This One
 

Don't even get me started on Pete Rose. I think the point has been made, the horse kicked, and more than a few glue bottles filled. He's "done his time", so to speak. Pete should be in Cooperstown.

Speaking of Rose....
 

Maybe should be another thread, but here's my least fav card of a guy who is in the HOF, but whose baseball exploits make Pete look like a choirboy.:rolleyes:

That's a great topic.

From a pure aesthetics standpoint I am hard-pressed to top this one:

I really like this one too, just a perfect depiction of Louisiana Lightning at his peak:

This one memorializes my fondest memory of baseball as a child:

This is the one that I like.

Pre-velcro Magic

Frank. I totally forgot about that Zernial! I've always loved that card too.

I finally got the Zernial last year. That was some set of balls on that card...

Favorite Card
 

So much duplication in this thread ;)

1957 Ted Kluszewski, my favorite vintage card.

Favorite not in HOF
 

Zernial has always been my number one. However this is a close second.
