Default Top 5 Pre-War Cards
Super Tough Question but here's my top 5 that I already own....

M101-4/5 Ruth Rookie
E90-1 Jackson
M110 Cobb
W600 Mathewson
Tip Top Wagner

Here is the "Dream 5"......

Boston Garter Mathewson (color version)....I don't think so!
Baltimore News Ruth
Breisch Williams Mathewson
Boston Garter Jackson
T206 Wagner.....well....since I'm dreaming!!!

Intersestingly enough, approx. 3/4 years ago, I remember discussing with my wife her thoughts on selling off approx. $100K - $125K of merchandise to purchase a "1" grade T206 Wagner. We both agreed I would lose too much good stuff to pull it off. Well, some 4 years later I am "eating crow" since modest 1's are now fetching approx. $250K - $400K!!!

Regards,
Joe T.
