T206 Cobb
I'd vote for the T206 Cobb. Cobb was super popular and the 2 portraits were overprinted, and people hung onto those cards as you can see from pop reports on PSA/SGC (especially the red portrait). Back in 1910, kids started collecting on a more widespread basis. The success of T206 as a form of advertising led to the growth of collecting baseball cards as a hobby. The Ty Cobb cards were revered, and findable, since there were so few Wagners to find. Here's a green Cobb from my collection:
