Being a diehard Mets collector, I would upgrade my Seaver rookie.

Though I am not a huge Mantle fan, I still love his 1960 Topps card and I would buy the sharpest raw/natural card I could find.

Ed M. you read my mind on the Aaron. That is what I am considering buying, found one in NM for a little over a grand.
I am considering selling a very tough to find minor league card of Derek Jeter for $1200 (cost me nothing, have had it since I was a kid) to purchase an iconic card. I do hate to part with the Jeter however...

Shawn, that is a tough call. The Aaron is a safe buy because, if anything, it may be undervalued a bit. The Jeter, however, is quite different. It could skyrocket once he retires and approaches HOF induction. Who know? You are in an envious position, however, because either way you will have a card should stand the test of time. Good luck!

I would put this $$$ toward a 1953-54 Briggs Meats panel of Portefield & Runnels because Pete Runnels was my favorite Wash. Senators player when I was a kid. Here's what this 2-card panel looks like:

That would be my choice or the nicest 53 Campy I could find then I would bust it out of the holder and put it in a screw case
