Posted By: <b>Dave F</b><p>I maybe in the minority, but I'd sure love to have his Uncle Jacks card. <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14>

Posted By: <b>Bob</b><p>Don't know about the most sought after, but the best looking one is the DeLong card, IMO.

Posted By: <b>davidcycleback</b><p>The 1960 Fleer #40 error (Joe Tinker on front/Pepper Johnson stats on back) is one of the key and toughest post-war ultra rarities. It's rarer than a 1948 Leaf Satchel Paige Rookie

Posted By: <b>Matt</b><p>David - there is also the version where they don't have stats from a Giants LB on the back <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14>

Posted By: <b>Anthony N.</b><p>David, I think you mean 1960 Fleer #80, which comes with Pepper Martin on the back, and either Tinker, Grove, or Collins on the front.<br /><img src="http://photos.imageevent.com/griffins/1960fleer/icons/60Fleer80.jpg"> <img src="http://photos.imageevent.com/griffins/1960fleer/icons/60Fleer81.jpg"><br /><br />And I'll agree with his Delong being the nicest, although I really like his Diamond Star as well.<br />

Posted By: <b>Frank Wakefield</b><p>I have 3 or 4 Martin cards...<br /><br />I've always liked the look of that Diamond Star card. It really does fit the period and the spirit of the high flyin' Redbirds, The Gashouse Gang.<br /><br />If one isn't posted here in the next couple of days, I'll dig mine out and scan it. A nice looking card!!

Posted By: <b>Chris Counts</b><p>This Wheaties panel is certainly not the most sought-after Pepper Martin, but it's one of my favorites ...<br /><br /><img src="http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e278/ccmcnutt/37martin.jpg">
