Don't overthink this. Whenever this question comes up on here, I think the answer is always Babe Ruth from a pure investment standpoint. Even with the big run up, you can still get a decent example of any of his Goudey cards or the Sport King card for $10,000. Goldin has a PSA 1.5 Ruth U.S. Caramel currently sitting at $5,000 (that may end above the $10,000 price point). The 1921 Exhibit card is another option for $10,000.

Agreed but I thought the OP was looking for a postwar card.

You're right. I read the thread title and forgot the section I was in.

All the cards you mentioned are great post-war choices from an investment standpoint.

I would also look at t206 Ty Cobb Portraits. For Postwar, 1949 Leaf Jackie Robinson or 1955 Topps Roberto Clemente would be the best choices.
