Fantastic thread. Dave, I admire your passion for collecting and the research.
These are my 2 favorite Crawford cards in my collection that I didn't make myself, Lol.
The image and color is exceptional on both--collecting on a tight budget can be challenging but without taking out a second mortgage, I'm happy with them!
After reading this thread, I'll be on the lookout for others!

Default Crawford was my first!

Really cool thread, thank you!

Sam Crawford T206 Throwing was my VERY 1st T206 card EVER! I was 12 years old, I studied my Monthly Trader Speaks like it was Homework (even better than homework! lol) I ordered my "Wahoo Sam" by sending a $17 check my mom wrote for me to ?? a little ad in there.........and about 2 weeks later! Voila! You'd have thought I had struck oil when I got that little envelope! It was amazing and I remember it like it was yesterday! Sadly, Mr. Crawford found another home during my college years but I'll never forget it! Thanks for this thread!

Peace, Mike

Here is my favorite Crawford item in my collection. Picked it up from a board member a couple years ago.

Thanks for sharing. I recently read The Glory of Their Times and really enjoyed Sam Crawfords story. I also have listen to his interview thanks to the post in this thread.

Killer thread topic! Thanks for all the replies folks, I remember selling a PSA 2 T-206 of Crawford at a show in Omaha about 20 years ago.
