Agreed Ryan. I always liked this one!! The wonderful group of OBC guys knew it and gave this to me as a random act of kindness. It will always be in my collection. Thanks again OBC!!

Default I find this card to be quite beautiful ...

If I liquidated all of my cards this would be one of the last ones left.

This 1974 Calbee card is the most beautiful in my books. The photo is just so strikingly composed. That is Sadaharu Oh at bat while Shigeo Nagashima crouches in the on deck circle in the final game of his career. I did a write up about it a couple of years ago here:

I knew this card would make an appearance in this thread. What a photo! When it comes to ranking cards based on artistry, this one definitely makes a case to be number one of all time.

ALWAYS loved "The Baker Stare" and how that medium blue just makes this card pop!

Default Mantles

Isn't this in the top 5 Mantle cards too? I think this one ranks right up there in beauty with the 52 and 53 Topps and the 1953B Color.
