Looks like Jay and I might be after the same card (nice pick Jay).

Well, if only one card it would have to be a Detroit OJ.

1st Pick = Lady Baldwin or Barney Gilligan

If not available (rarely surface), I defer to these easier Detroit HOFers:

2nd Pick = Sam Thompson

3rd Pick = Dan Brouthers

The nicest example of any one of these issues.

T206 Cy portrait
T206 WaJo portrait
T206 Matty portrait
Nicest late 20's exhibit Ruth
Late 20's Gehrig

Around 20 years ago I bought a raw but very nice Dockman Cy Young at a show in Raleigh, NC for around $500. Not knowing much about prewar, as well as being somewhat younger and stupider, I somehow convinced myself shortly after buying it that the card was trimmed, so I sold it for probably a bit less than I paid for it. Less than a year later I saw the same card (I could tell from the attributes it was the exact one I had...) in a PSA 5 slab for sale on eBay.

So yeah, that was a few dollars lost...
