You could have a large photo of this printed off, then frame and mat with signed index cards of Gardner and Doyle! You really lucked out. For a 113 year old baseball game, the two players mentioned in the caption are also have the cheapest autographs of anyone on the field that day!

My favorite would probably be my Hal Chase game used glove sourced directly from his next door neighbor.

A close 2nd would be my T206 player game used bat collection. I’ve since added 2 in the last couple months which brings me up to 43.

It has everything going for it - rarity, great looks, Ruth, and total English on back.

Default My Favorite GOAT Cards

Issued only on July 21, 1935, as a supplement to the Detroit Free Press during the M120 run of Tigers



I do recognize the argument for a tie at the top so:



The Babe was the OG. Ruth slugging average career .690. Everyone else...not. Ruth OPS career 1.1636. Everyone else...not. Ruth career WAR 182.6. Everyone else...not.



1958 Cleveland TI:



What do you call a guy who averages over 30 points per game and over 22 rebounds per game for a career? GOAT



But there is a controversy, so 1984 rookie year team issue:



He won over 200 NASCAR races; the next closest barely cracked 100:



There is only 1 GOAT in futbol.



There is a reasonable argument that Sir Lewis Hamilton is the F1 GOAT so his 2007 Mercedes team issue;

I’ll do one more since I probably can’t just choose one. Willie Mays game used bat. Acquired directly from the son of an ex-Pirates bat boy at Forbes Field. There are still finds out there!

Yes, Richard Lee Petty! If I won a big lottery, I'd go after one of his Plymouth Road Runners or Dodge Chargers from the 1970's:





Given my more meager finances, I have to content myself with this model kit:

It’s difficult for me to pick just one item but I do love this 1919 World Series game one program that’s been scored and the original owner wrote the score of the game on the cover

Greatest OJ Animal: Terrier.

Anyway, Google image search says it's a Terrier....I don't really know.

At any rate, this is my favorite collectible (that I own).
