I suppose if I were really to choose something, a true white whale if you will it would be the Harrsion Studios Postcard of Josh Gibson. I doubt there even is another copy of this card in existence, and I'm pretty sure the only way I would ever own it would be if I suddenly inherited millions of dollars.

I never owned it, but at least I got to authenticate the autograph aspect of it (and the accompanying Jud Wilson, which I'd personally rather own over the Gibson due to his rarity making Gibson's autograph look "common"!).
