Top "Common" & "HOFer" On Your Wantlist

[pgellis]

I was curious about everyone's wantlist. And by "wantlist", I mean a card, that if it pops up at a reasonable price, you will jump on it. I am not meaning, a T206 Honus Wagner or Baltimore News Babe Ruth, but rather a card in your sights, which you will buy at a reasonable price.

So, with that in mind, let's list our most wanted "common" & our most wanted "HOFer".

I'll start:

Common: T206 Harry Covaleski in SGC50 or better.

HOFer: T206 Mordecai Brown, Cubs on Shirt in SGC50 or better.

[wazoo]

Common: T206 Fred Tenney

Hof'er: T206 Walter Johnson or Mathewson

[4815162342]

Any E105 common, and/or any E105 HOFer that I can afford.

This one is easy for me, a D381 Fred Toney. The last Fred Toney I need for my Fred Toney collection. I have a example of every of issue of his cards.

Tony

[ValKehl]

Common: 1924 Diaz Cigs - "Oyster Joe" Martina

HOFer: Any WaJo or Sam Rice that I don't have, such as:
WaJo - 1923 E123 Curtis Ireland Candy
Rice - 1917 E135-type with any ad back

Common: Cylce Backed T205 Grant

HOF: AB Backed T205 Mathewson

[EGreenwood]

Common - don't laugh, but a 1987 Pocatello Giants the Bon Mike Greenwood. I was able to find an Old Judge Greenwood before this card.

Common appropriate for this board - 21 or 22 Zeenuts Stanage

HOF - low grade T206 Davis, Chesbro or Willis

Erik Greenwood

[Jim65]

HOF: 1965 OPC Warren Spahn- last card I need to complete my set.

Common: Exhibit Ed Kranepool

[rdixon1208]

Common: T210-3 Burch

HOFer: E90-1 Speaker

[Wite3]

Common: So many but any Felin Frank Phillie

HOFer: Duke's Delahanty

[novakjr]

Common: any Mel Harder that I don't have.

HOF:Goudey Wide Pen Bob Feller.

[wolf441]

Common - T206 Titus
HOF'er - T206 Lajoie Batting

Decent shape (raw or SGC 40) for both

[cdn_collector]

Common: T206 George Gibson (Piedmont 350)

HOFer*: T206 George Gibson (Old Mill)

Regards,

Richard.

*We're talking about the Canadian Baseball HoF, right?

Common- Any E101 with a stupid back stamp, can be any player or condition, that says Niagara Baking, or D355. Four walked into a coin shop a year or so ago, and they got away, never to be seen again. I was a very-late-to-the-party 500th person seeing those.

HOF- Eventually would like to pick up some obscure Jackson card.....

[HRBAKER]

Reggie or Travis?

[Kingcobb]

I would probably overpay for a mid grade E254 Colgan Cy Young.

[Jcfowler6]

E91-c Allen storke and 1953 bowman peewee Reese

[ksfarmboy]

Common: Agler Colgan Chip
HOF: Joe Tinker Ramly

[Danny Smith]

Hof: eddie plank
Common: any and all mello mints

[x2drich2000]

Common: any w554 with either a "lucky yo-yo" or "big prize" backstamp

Hof: a decent looking, low grade e93 Wagner

dj

[dabigyankeeman]

HOF - 1933 Goudey Ruth with red back, the last Ruth I need in that set.

Common - any old Yankee card, preferably a player I am NOT familiar with.

[leaflover]

Common....1933 Goudey,#36 Tommy Thevenow
HOF'er. ...1933 Goudey, #138 Herb Pennock

[BleedinBlue]

Common: 1941 Goudey Bill Crouch, Red or Yellow background
HOF: None. All of the Hall of Famers I'm looking for are out there readily. Money is all that keeps me from pulling the trigger.

[ls7plus]

common: don't collect them (at least not on purpose! Collected plenty so-called future HOF'ers that turned out to be commons in my era of modern card collecting in the early '90's. Anyone remember Ruben Sierra?)

HOF'er: 1939 R303 Ted Williams (any grade)

Good thread--now if someone just answers my prayer re old Teddy Ballgame!

Best, guys,

Larry

[Tim Kindler]
