About three years ago I ended my automatic investment plans and simply started pooling cash into my accounts. I was mystified by the whole bubble. I got hit when the crash hit (mostly because I held on too long to my mutual funds) and had the big "capitulation" sale in June. I still have some $$ in play and I watch it shrink daily. ARGHHHH!!!!

Thank God for my cards. The good picks I've made just stay nice and steady in value. Besides, I'd rather stare at a T206 Cobb than a Schwab statement any day.

But I digress. My favorites from my collection:

1920's PC back Exhibit Babe Ruth sitting portrait(I used to have a poster of this pose on my wall in the dorms-- didn't get me many girls BTW)
1922 Exhibit Harry Heilmann (GREAT picture--same as E121(?) but many x larger)
1921 Exhibit Walter Johnson
T206 Cobb Bat Off (what great colors)
T205 Jack Barry (amazing colors)
1954 Aaron
1955 Ted Williams
1963 Sandy Koufax
