I'm colorblind (I really shouldn't be allowed to dress myself), but I seem to lean towards shades of green so the Ed Walsh and Bender Portrait have always appealed. Beyond that Johnson, even if he weren't a HOF, is a great looking card. And Tinker for his haircut. What the hell was he thinking?

2 Rucker
3 Dessau

I am happy to see so many pick Dougherty as well. I just love the background color on that one.

Default Portraits

I have to agree with everyone else's picks.....because I can't pick just 5

Along with a certain strange attraction to the 150 series cards that I seem to have, I have the same for most all of the portrait T206's. The artwork on some of these cards, to me at least, is mind blowing for the era. Here are some that I love- and there are many I love but do not have. Also, beautiful cards Tony, you have great taste !!!

Sincerely, Clayton

Default Of the top tier HOF'ers

#1 Cy Young - great green color, very nice picture image

#2 Walter Johnson - yellow background ok, not the best, quality picture image

#3 Cobb - red or green, bummer the same image on both, average image


Honus Wagner - love the orange background, great image, but dreamer if ever able to obtain one, so kinda doesn't count

These are only the ones off the top of my head. I believe all the portraits are unique and special.

There is nothing like a red cobb portrait when it has that blazing color, with bright white borders.....Hal Case Pink gets a close second, just so hard to find in high grade!!
