In no particular order...
(All photos are grabs from ebay)
1973 Willie Mays - The first card of my idol in the uniform of my beloved Mets.
1978 Reggie Jackson - The classic Reg-gie follow through. Awesome!!
1972 Willie McCovey - Love the blurry hand. Can't recall another Topps card with that effect.
1962 Roger Maris - As a kid I heard of Maris' accomplishment like it was ancient history. Had one of these cards with a hole punch in it squirreled away in my collection.
1974 Nolan Ryan - This one needs no explanation. Look at that shot!!
1976 Johnny Bench - In a word, "intimidation."
1977 Dave Kingman - My absolute favorite player in a great photo.
1958 Mantle/Aaron - I wish the Mick was looking straight ahead, but that's just splitting hairs.
1965 Casey Stengel - Sitting on a bench and gesticulating. What's not to love?!
1972 Bobby Bonds - Look at that grin on his face. It says, "I can't believe I didn't launch that pitch!!"

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

My Top 10 in no certain order:

1. 1952 Topps Andy Pafko BB - It's a beater but it's mine.
2. 1952 Topps Yogi Berra - Nice color, great corners, couple of print lines
got it for a great price. One card I thought I
never get since I bargain shop.
3. 1952 Topps Bob Schultz - I sold mine 20 yrs ago to help buy my wife's
wedding ring. I reacquired the card about a
year ago.
4. 1953 Topps Vic Janowicz - Same as above in #3
5. 1952 Topps Joe Hatton - The card is a PSA 9oc. One of 2 in this grade
none higher. The card is oc on the back.
60 / 40 front.
6. 1952 Topps Gil Hodges BB - Great corners, couple of heavy creases
7. 1952 Topps Robin Roberts - Sharp corners, high gloss, beautiful card.
8. 1952 Topps Al Rosen BB - Great corners, I got mine for a great price too.
9. 1952 Pete Runnels - Same as #6
10. 1952 Bob Harris - Same as #7

I like all of my cards, and have put time in to find nice cards at very good prices. I always try to buy raw, unless I find a a card I consider undergraded. Card collecting is a fine hobby, and it's nice to pull out cards and the end of the day to study and enjoy them. A life's pleasure for me.

My top ten:

1. 1961 Topps Mantle AS
2. 1958 Topps Mantle
3. 1955 Topps Ted Williams
4. 1960 Topps Mantle
5. 1952 Bowman Yogi Berra
6. 1961 Topps Mantle
7. 1957 Topps Willie Mays
8. 1962 Topps Roger Maris
9. 1956 Topps Hank Aaron
10.1956 Topps Sandy Koufax

The 1961 Mantle AS is huge for me because I have the entire '61 AS subset.
