What’s your top 3 want list?

[joshuanip]

As of right now,

1) 1932 caramel Ruth
2) 1910 e98 Cobb (I know, value trap)
3) kill the gopher tearing up my backyard.

The first two happens before I get my third wish item...

[Cmvorce]

Good luck with the gopher - absolute nightmare.

52 Topps Mantle (now well out of my range)
33 Goudey Ruth - any variation (quickly realizing I may have missed the boat on this one)
T206 Young Portrait

Realistically my top 3:

Young Portrait
33 Goudey Dean
Allen and Ginter King Kelly

[realbigfatdog]

1. Mello-Mint Hal Chaee
2. Rose Company Postcards Hal Chase
3. E92 Nadja Hal Chase
3a. D303 General Baking Hal Chase

I too wanted a 32 caramel ruth...this will likely never happen...additionally...replacing my green t206 cobb may not fabricate either. These are/were top 3 for me.

#1 wuld be the T216 Miller I need to complete my run.

[packs]

E90 Tris Speaker
T227 Ty Cobb
T205 Cobb

[Casey2296]

E224 Walter Johnson
M131 Cobb
14CJ Cobb
51B Mantle
21 Exhibits Ruth
33G Ruth #53
PC796 Cobb/Wagner
PC796 Speaker
PC796 Johnson

I can never decide on these things so I guess it would be whatever opportunity popped up with any 3 of the above.

[Touch'EmAll]

My want list of one: T206 Cobb bat off PSA 5. That would complete my T206 Cobb quartet. I have an extra Bat On Cobb PSA 5 - anyone interested in an even up swap?

[todeen]

I had a good year last year and knocked off a few of my top 10 want list. My want list is usually intermingled with modern and prewar. So this new top 3 would be described as fluid, especially minus the modern.

1) Cap Anson card.... (My son is named after him...I asked my wife if we could spend our tax return on the Anson posted a couple days ago on BST....she said no)
2) Cobb B18 felt / Cobb T202 triple fold
2.5) Johnson B18 felt / Johnson individual anything
3) Speaker T205 / E90-1
4) Gehrig Wheaties fielding pose
5) 1915 CJ Groh and Roush

[tab]

T206 DRUM
T206 COBB bat on
And a certain rare T206 error I doubt I ever get a chance at.

[WA_HOF_rookie]

I'd settle for a PSA 1 (or even auth) of
33 Gehrig
T206 Cobb - any
T205 Walter Johnson

There is. It's hand-cut and graded A, but like you say they never surface.
