I too really like the e95 Plank and have had that on my want list.

Revised. Thanks

I would take a T206 Evers portrait over a T206 Tinker portrait.

I struggled with that one and ended up with the Evers E95 in order to keep the Tinker.

It's up to you, but if you wanted to avoid T206s on the list, but still wanted the Tinker portrait in there, you could always go with the CJ Tinker (same portrait pose).

I think the Walter Johnson portrait belongs in there, whether you go with T206 or the more expensive T204.

I didn't bother ranking them and wanted to stay to only one card from any set and player:

1. e95 plank
2. E90-1 Young
3. E90-3 Evers
4. E96 Mack
5. m116 Wagner
6. e107 Joss
7. t206 Tinker
8. t204Brown
9. e145 Mathewson
10.t205 Mouth Closed Bresnehan

edited to add only based of aesthetic value, if it wasn't then Bresnehan wouldn't be on the list because he shouldn't be a HOF in my opinion.

My two favorite Evers portraits.

Agree on the T206 Johnson, not only for a great card but also for Eric's "$obtainable$" in the OP (although I don't know what his "$obtainable$" =s ?) IMHO, a single T206 Johnson score would satisfy his statement of "three at the most T206" top heaviness, freeing him up for other types.

John,
All three of those cards suck. You should get them out of your collection immediately. Call me for help with that.

Not M, T, or E, but certainly an iconic card.

Some great suggestions and caused me to do some revisions already. But, where is Cobb and Lajoie?

1. M116 Wagner
2. E95 Plank
3. E90-1 Young
4. E90-3 Evers
5. T206 WAJO
6. CJ Tinker
7. T205 Matty
8. E104 Collins
9. T206 Cobb (Green Background) *Wankaticket's Cobb was inspiring and I need green on my sheet for background to balance out the red.
10.

*The e96 Mack is on honorable mention. I had not consider it.

I don't have one but the E90-1 Lajoie is a great looking portrait card. M116 Cobb is a nice portrait.

Did someone say "Cobb?" Ya'll knew this was coming.

If you need a Nap I would go with his T206, and would have to break my rule of 1 card per set and have him take the t205 spot.

t205 Matty is the first one I thought of................ (I borrowed the photo from ebay)
