Post your 5 favorite cards that you own

[QUOTE=the 'stache;1269224]Well, for me, a card's value really doesn't factor into how much I like it. Some of the cards I love most didn't cost me more than $30 or $40. And some of them were gifted to me, like my first T202 below from Pete, and my 1933 Goudey Al Simmons from Kenny. Those mean more to me than any $40,000 card ever could because of the kindness associated with them. It doesn't mean I won't buy and enjoy expensive pre-war cards, because some of the cards I really want are quite costly. But cost alone never factors into what I buy. A card either speaks to me, or it doesn't...]

I'm not opposed to that position, Bill. My first Kiner Tip-Top is in poor condition, but pre-internet, took me nearly 15 years to find. Cost: $26.00 My '47 Tip-Top Johnny Mize is also a favorite, because he is such an underrated slugger, and had such a great year: 51 HR (tying Kiner), 138 RBI, .302 and 137 runs scored). That card is also in poor condition, and cost me $48.00. As you might have noticed, I like the stars and HOF'ers from the 1947 Tip-Top set. I also have a 1921 Exhibits Hornsby, where the pic just captures his essence in PSA Ex--cost: $450, about a decade ago.

Highest regards,
