Great thread, I finally got around to asking my wife, I have a display in my office of '33 Goudey HOF cards & she is very supportive of my hobby, but she only got one from that group.

1) Jeter - didn't know his first name
2) Randy... "the tall guy that looks like Rusty" (her friend's husband) I helped with his last name (Johnson).
3) Babe Ruth - this one may have saved her picks in my mind.
4) Mark McGwire- "didn't he get a lot of home runs?"

In between 4 & 5 "I can name a lot of wrestlers" & "who was Field of Dreams about?"

5) Jose Canseco

What I learned is I better finish my list I have promised her of which cards to send to major auction houses when I "go" and which ones can go to local or smaller auctions.


Update: As we got ready for bed last night, out of the blue she says "Ty Cobb & Willie Mays" which improves her list drastically!
