Multiple and ONLY HOFers on same card
 

I'm wondering if anyone has ever created a thread on this... I am a HOF collector (trying to get one card of every HOfer) and i thought a cool side gig might be to have a gaggle of cards which show multiple HOFers but only HOFers on the same card.

Tons of cards have more than 1 HOF player... but I'm looking for other ideas like these beauties below (side note... could they REALLY not find a better image of Mays?!!)

Would love other suggestions!

There are many but T201 immediately comes to mind.

Cobb/Crawford
Huggins/Bresnahan
Evers/Chance
Collins/Baker

One of the most under rated post-war cards...

I don't own it but there is a 64 NL leaders card with 4 HOFers. And one of the Exhibit 4 on 1s has 4 Red Sox HOFers, Grove Foxx Cronin and Ferrell I think.

64 was a good year to be a Giant.

here's a few

Now THAT’S what I’m talkin’ about! This one will be in my collection someday... as are most of these other relatively affordable cards

Love this Cobb (x2) + Jennings card. It’s a bonus to know the story of their relationship as player and manager, makes this card even more cool

I believe the 1941 Double Play has 7 cards that have 2 Hall of Famers. I think the Slaughter/Mize card is extra special, because it is the rookie card of Enos, and it is the first normal size, larger distribution card for Johnny.

Brian (just to note, typically Double Play cards are not cut in half like mine)

Is this cheating? Probably.

4 HOFers (2 with back to camera):

+1 I always loved this card.

Related 1978 Topps Rookie Catchers is the only multi rookie I can think of with 4 All-Stars

Molitor/Trammell only multi HOF rookie card I can think of.

Not sure this has been posted.

Check and Mate Erick.

I don't own it (hate the Ruth pose) but...

Fun to note: Hall of Famer Joe Cronin has 2 cards in the Double Play set, but in each he has to share with not just another Hall of Fame player, but also an All-Time great superstar on each card (Ted Williams and Jimmie Foxx).

Brian (poor Joe)

Can we forget about the gentleman in the middle? Doesn't get a lot better than these 2 guys. One of my fave BST pickups..

Japanese card manufacturers got in on this act as well. Takahiko Bessho and Kazuhisa Inao (on the left and the right, respectively) are two of Japan's greatest pitchers. If memory serves, this set is from 1958.

Here are a couple of National Chicles:

Perfect! This is great... so many great ideas but this one below (league leaders + only HOFers) gives me focus. Thx man!

Does this count?

Johnny Bench and Johnny Bench.

Joe Morgan and Johnny Bench

Going through boxes of commons and found them

Signed....
 

I've never understood why the SSPC set doesn't get more love. IMHO they're beautiful cards.

And several HOF RCs in the set too. But the market has always viewed them as worthless.

Hello,

If you look closely, the 1962 Topps Manager's Dream card has 3 Hall of Famers, not 4. The players in the background are Elston Howard, John Roseboro, and Hank Aaron. The picture was taken at the 2nd 1961 All Star Game in Boston, that ended in a 1-1 tie after 9 innings due to rain. The Dodgers road uniform had the blue piping around the neck and Roseboro wore #8.

Thanks,- for showing all the great cards.

Jeff

!970 leaders cards.

Based on each player's final pricing structure (and if Mays had signed outside items the last time he came out of the woodwork), that card would cost just over $1000 to have signed. Sadly, Mays would have found a way to botch it, bad eyesight or not. Aaron's results would have been up in the air, although likely not with the same malicious intent.

Eventually there will be the Pujols/Ichiro dual cards.

Shows you what I know about Modern. Didn't realize they shared a card. are there any shiny rainbow colored signature cards with little icicles imprinted on them to invest in?

The 1978 Topps Trammell/Molitor Card has the be one of the best ( 2 HOF'ers and Both Rookies ) !!!
