Favorite card pairings!

[Vintagecatcher]

For those of us that enjoy displaying our collections, what are some of your favorite "type cards" that pair well with other types of the same player.

These two cards, which I acquired this year, work well together:

Johnny Kling E91-A and Johnny Kling Plow Boy Tobacco Cabinet.

Let's see your favorite type cards of an individual player that pair well!

When I first started collecting Turkey Reds
I matched a few T3 Baseball subjects w/ T206's & T9 Boxers w/ T218's

Here's 1 scan that I retrieved

Each one of these rare cigar label proofs shows more of the in progress ballgame in the background.

Keeping with the catching theme. Here is a pair of Miguel Angel "Mike" Gonzalez cards. Mike Gonzalez is super underrated for a man who was a true baseball pioneer. He was one of the first Cubans to play in the Major Leagues (1912). He had a 17 year major league career. He became a well respected coach with the St. Louis Cardinals and manged the team on two short occasions. In Cuba he was a long time player, manager and team owner of the Habana club. His baseball involvement spanned seven decades.

I collect three sets: DeLong, Diamond Stars, Wilson Franks. There are several players that overlap between the first two but only one that overlaps with Wilson Franks.

These two rare Topps test issues pair perfectly.

Not the same player, but cool how they made two cards out of one picture.

A couple of Babes and a pair of Teds!

I like to find a cool Harry Heilmann card to go with my Lucky Strike sign, but that’s down the road!

Babe usually lives in the safe, not on top of that spittoon!

Time for the weekend and college football!

I like this thread because it's open to interpretation as to what makes a pairing. Here is the same pose for two different players in two different sets.

Pete Runnels was my favorite Senator when I was a kid:

I like this pair because it looks like the T205 Walsh image is a match for the PC796 Sepia Postcard Walsh.

Here are a couple of Mathewson cards (E91A and M116) that share the same Christy face and Christy shirt collar.

Really some great cards in this thread.

These aren't directly associated, but still period to each other....

I’m more of a memorabilia guy but at least there is one card in this grouping
