Can't seem to narrow it down to my favorite card so thought I'd pick one per decade between the 1880s and 1980s.
There's only one football card in the 1880s so this decade was easy.  Hard to pass up 4x AA Frank Hinkey in the 1890s but gotta go with the iconic Mayo Anonymous card.  There isn't much to choose from in the first decade of the 20th century but I really like this Postcard of Walter Eckersall. If there was a Heisman Trophy back then, he would have won it!  I hope you all will pardon me for showing a baseball card here but this decade belongs to Thorpe.  Grange owned the 20s and this is my favorite Grange card ... and might be his true rookie.  Gotta go with the "Wagner of Football" for the 30s.  Props to my all time favorite QB for the 40s.  I could go Unitas or Brown rookie in the 50s but just love the Bazooka set.  The 60s belongs to the card I lusted after as a kid.  70s = Walter  80s = Montana  Hope you enjoyed this as much as I did! Keep the cards coming. jeff Last edited by jefferyepayne; 10-28-2015 at 07:21 PM.

I sometimes drool so much looking at these cards that I'm afraid I might ruin my laptop!

Favorite Football Cards
One of my favorites due to its historical significance. I also like the bright colors and how the picture fills its frame, looks 3D to me.
 Another nicely colored card. Namath's image pops out at you. I wanted to be Broadway Joe.
