T205 Collector Input Sought

[Leon]

I personally think the Cobb in the set is one of the absolute best looking cards in the hobby, especially when it has the "pop" factor.....

Leon,

Please elaborate on the "pop" of which you speak. Thx.

Sometimes cards, especially ones like the T205 Cobby, have super clarity, brightness and focus. Cards like that are said to "pop" because of their colors. It can refer to any card that, when you look at it, you go "wow!!".

Cobb and Mathewson are beautiful, as well as expensive. If your only looking for beauty I would check out the subset in the T205's that are the minor league cards. They are amazing. Im at work now, but maybe over the weekend I can post them, if someone dosnt beat me to it.

Agreed on the Matty - if registration is good; otherwise he looks Frankensteinish. Here's a nice one:

I agree with Leon, I think that aside from the N162 Kelly, the T205 Cobb is the most beautiful card in the hobby.

That said, the Matty is gorgeous as well, and as far as lesser HOFers goes, the Zach Wheat has always been one of my favorite cards. I also really like the Joe Tinker.

Tough to stop at just one for this set. It's a gorgeous one.

Think I gotta go with the Cobb, all things considered.

Now to find a nice mid-grade example! Anybody got one-- just holla!
