Heck, I can't decide, but these are definitely at the top of the vintage class:



Now, turning away from rarity and value and towards pure sentiment:



The above was pulled from a pack when I was 11. I somehow kept it in nice shape through cross-country moves, earthquakes, burglaries, marriage and other tragedies.



Meeting a childhood idol can often be anticlimactic or even disappointing--Pete Rose and Willie Mays come to mind--but not Mr. Aaron; he was every bit the class act I hoped he would be. Remains my favorite player of all time.

And just because I can't stay away from non-baseball subjects:

I've always loved that 76 Aaron card even though not a HUGE fan of Aaron (I like him) or the Brewers, and Hate the DH. Go Figure. Here's my favorite that is scanned.
OK, and a more recent one I really like.

In keeping with the theme of the board, this is my favorite pre-war.


HOWEVER, this is my favorite card ever made and finally got one last year.

Bet it was tough narrowing it down to one, Joe. And who can blame you.

Default Only One Graded...

Could this card possibly be the only one known? I doubt it, surely there must be another tucked away in someones personal collection. My favorite card!

Thanks for the props Justin & David. SGC claims a light surface chip on the reverse of the Lajoie portrait just above the letter "P" in Piedmont interferes with the parallel lines that run up word & shortens them ever so slightly. Talk about splitt'in hairs. I have never seen a nicer Lajoie portrait in any grade. If there was ever a card that screamed crack and re-submit to PSA this is it.
