Recently bought off a fellow board member. Just love it.

Great Cobb!

I have a few cards that are my centerpiece for different sets, but these two always stand out as one's I love in my collections.

Tough to pick one, but I think the "Babe" is my centerpiece.

I'm confused, isn't that my green Cobb?

I see that now that I'm home. On my phone it showed my Cobb in your post for some odd reason. Sorry about that

Sweet Jesus that Shag is a beaut.

Great cards everyone. Sorry, no scanner, but would be very hard to pick just one. Among the possibilities would be the following:

(1) 1907 Dietsche Fielding Pose Ty Cobb

(2) 1907 Wolverine News Cobb portrait

(3) 1939 V351 Ted Williams

(4) 1939 R303A Ted Williams

(5) 1923 Lections Babe Ruth

(6) 1931-32 Exhibit Ruth

(7) 1953-54 Briggs Willie Mays

(8) 1926-29 Exhibit Postcard back Jimmie Foxx

(9) 1955 Exhibit Postcard Back Mickey Mantle

The history of the game you can hold right in your hands!

Best to all,

Larry

Raymond, the colors and the clarity on your 1933 Goudey Babe Ruth are truly at the top of the spectrum---spectacular, bro! A genuine Sultan of Swat home run of a card.

I would list a couple of my own mega-card favorites---but I don't know how to load up an image; my tech support son is sleeping off his shift. Besides, they're POST-WAR-1980 anyway. However, to quote a word from our Leon Luckey, they are most assuredly NOT "pedestrian".
