Baltimore News Ruth for me. I guess one red and one blue would be nice since I can't decide on one or the other. lol

If I'm the Mike you are referring to, I'm flattered. If not......well then......I'm guess I'm just fatter (than I was ten years ago!) hahahah

Take care Mrvster,

Peace, Mike

This would be my question, are we only allowed to own 1 baseball card or are we adding 1 card to our collection? If I could own only 1 card, it would be t206 Wagner. If we are adding 1 card, it would be the Baltimore News Ruth.

The most expensive card in the world (at any given time) so I could pay off my house, give the kids full boat to a good college and retire to buy and sell more cards just for fun! Oh, and move somewhere when it never gets colder than 70 degrees and almost never rains (continental US only).
That's not asking too much is it?

1) Any Old Judge that features Old Hoss Radbourn sneakily flipping off the photographer (with nice contrast so the finger is hilariously clear)- and I'm not an Old Judge guy!

2) 68 Topps 3D Roberto Clemente

Hey Johnny V

Your question here is somewhat unclear.

Anyhow, for 30+ years my ultimate goal was to acquire a T206 Plank. Especially, when I attained 467 cards in my all-SWEET CAPORAL Factory #30 set,
which comprises of 469 cards. I searched for a Plank with a tough to find SWEET CAP 150 Factory #30 back. Also, one that would be consistent with the
overall grade (Vg-Ex) of the 467 cards in this set. I'm happy to say that this story has a happy ending.

Great card, Ted. Why is it an A? Does the back have some kind of residue on it?

btw, I guess if I could have one card it might be a BN Ruth...or a few others

In an effort to take a different look at this, I’d want something for my otherwise modest Hal Chase collection...these would qualify...and to be clear I don’t own any of the items below!!!

Default First of all.......
A HUGE CONGRATS TO CLINT!!!!

This made me so happy! a useful thread I finally post it almost brought a tear to my eye....I can't imagine ever getting a Wagner, but if I did, I would probably pass out...maybe I will hit the lottery or find one at a flea market....nice to have a life long dream.....kinda why I posted this thread...


but now you have your dream card and I can live vicariously through you my friend!!!

GOD BLESS!! and also to Jay for getting Clint his "Dream Card" WOW....


Second:

George, so touching to hear that story.......I'm in the process of trying to get back a very sentimental card I know how you feel...sometimes the memory attached to the card is worth more than a whole collection...but people are worth more... hope you get re united with it.........remember we are just "renting" these little cardboard beauties for now but the joy like landing that card, the memory last a lifetime.....people matter more than cardboard, but it's nice to be feeding the kid in all of us......


Third :

Rats my friend......YES OF COURSE! ....your taste in these are unreal and just like mine....great people


Lastly:


all these pieces are just mid blowing! hard to find my favorite, I really enjoy this thread, but Clint made my posts on this board all worth it! I SHARE ALL OF YOUR JOY MY FRIENDS......




PEACE ON EARTH AND GOODWILL TO MAN(AND WOMAN)





Merry Early Christmas everyone


like Christmas when I open this thread and see all your super gifts.....


GOD BLESS ....and happy collecting
