If you had 100k to build a collection...

I love the list below. My only edit would be to take out the DiMaggio and throw in one of the 4 t206 cobbs. I just think over time the t206 will hold value more than DiMaggio (coming from a guy who has zero insight).

Now, to answer the OP's question, I'd pick a few from this list below:

Baseball

- Leaf Jackie Robinson

- Bowman Mickey Mantle

Football

- National Chicle Bronko Nagurski
- Topps Jim Brown
- Topps Joe Namath

Hockey

- Parkhurst Gordie Howe
- Topps Bobby Orr
- Topps Bobby Hull

Basketball

- Topps Bill Russell
