Fred makes a good point in favor of the N172 Anson in uniform. It is a very scarce and desirable card of a top tier HOF from a commonly collected set - the most widely collected set of the era.
As much as I love the Just So Cy Young and the 4BH Kelly, or card the N167 Ewing for that matter, those sets are so scarce that they cannot be widely collected. Obviously there are not many that are actually trying to complete (if even possible) the N172 set, there are many active collectors of various sub-sets within it. JimB

It seems the N172 Anson in uniform is the most mentioned choice and probably the best given the criteria. Anson career was as long and prolific as just about any 19th century player. I would say the N172 set is the most widely collected and popular 19th century set. And finally, the Anson is
" possible " to obtain. Leon- Nice to see you at the National. Thanks for the assist.

I would disagree in that the Anson is virtually impossible to obtain. The three in private hands may stay with their owners a very long time.
