they are pictures/cards you don't see often (kinda like the 1976 Kurt Bevacqua Bubble Gum Blowing Champ card). Sure - you see fielding, batting and pitching cards quite a bit in all sets - I just like those for their oddity. Of course, my collection consists of several horizontals, "leaping to catch" poses like the E cards of Magee, Lajoie, Oakes and Cobb; and cards with nice "sunset" backgrounds like Jacklitsch, Chance, Bergen, Wagner Fiedling, T206 Cobb Bat Off Shoulder, etc.

I like the cards you don't see that often I guess - not the Portraits and other frequently encountered cards (though, I do like the E95 Bender Portrait with the cool multi-colored background). That is what makes this Hobby so exciting - these Vintage cards have a little something for everyone, no matter what your tastes are!
