Your favorite card based on artwork/beauty

I've always liked the colors in the Bell (hands above head).

There are so many to choose from. The tobacco card era is fountain of great images, as are the 1933 Goudeys. I could also go on and on about the artistic merits of Bowmans from 1950 to 1953, and 1956-57 Topps. But if I had to pick one card from my collection to declare a piece of art, I would go with the 1933 Goudey Paul Richards, which must have inspired the final scene of "Field of Dreams."

Subject matters to most of us, so I submit this Helmar Imperial Cabinet of Gehringer based on a Conlin Photo. Conlin did the hard part, but Helmar did an equally successful job in the Coloring. If anyone says -- but this is not a card -- I would have to agree.

A few of my favorites, two of which break the rule being postwar but I think they are as nice as any card.

I think this Bowman Musial speaks for itself.



I love the artwork on this Paul Richards.

EDIT...LOL, while I was gathering these a much nicer copy of this card was posted!

Great pose, beautiful Braves uni.



There is something about the fairgrounds background on this card that made me pick it up (here on N54, I think).

Wow! Love how they made the flags red. It's almost always just uniform shadow color with the grandstand.

And really hard to argue there's anything better than a T3 Cobb! Sheesh that's gorgeous!

For prewar baseball, one card instantly springs to mind



It seems to glow.
