What popular cards have you never wanted to add to your collection?

e90-1 Jackson has never done it for me.

I will go with the 52T Mantle, any T206 Cobb and any Goudey Ruth. I realize those are all iconic cards, but they are way too common to get me excited. Most of my excitement in the hobby is derived from seeing a card pop up for the first time in several years.

N172 Old Judge, SF Hess, any other albumen photo small card. I just don't like the way they look. Cabinets are entirely different; love those.

Any T206 rarer back: I just don't care about backs unless I am selling.

The E90-1 Jackson: good call on that FUGLY card. So are most of the 'drawing' E cards. They just don't hold a candle to the T cards. The ones I think are actually nice looking are few and far between, like some of the e95s.

1933 Goudey Gehrig. Looks generic to me. Same with the Foxx.

1955 Bowman and 1962 Topps: do not like the wood bordered designs.

1953 Topps: with very few exceptions, the artwork doesn't do it for me.

1948 Leaf Paige and Robinson. Marquee cards that are just lousy looking.

I have never had any interest in collecting the 1903 Breisch Williams E-107 set.

The prices have always been super high, and the cards simply never excited me.

I like the 1949 Leaf Jackie Robinson and Honus Wagner cards, but dislike the rest of the set. I never wanted to collect the set or other stars, Ruth, DiMaggio, Williams, Musial, Paige, etc.

+1. Eddie, you pretty much expressed my sentiments. Very scarce and rare cards are what excite me the most.

Any lithographic card, including T206s.

For me, it’s Pete Rose’s 1963 Topps rookie. First, I do not like multiplayer cards, especially 4-in1s. Secondly, I do not like the floating heads.

Any lipstick caramel that makes the player look like a completely different person. The previously mentioned E-90 Jackson, much of E96.

Black Sox players in general. I need some to complete a set, but I don’t pay premiums for guys who cheated in the worst possible way (cheating to lose) or enjoy them extra, as most do.

Ugly rookie cards, no matter how important or scarce or valuable.

I dislike multi player RC. Rose, Nolan Ryan, Joe Morgan, Ripken. Those are all disappointing to me.

Wouldn't say I would turn it down if someone offered it to me for a dollar...but I think the card is ugly and would be low on my want list of Joe Jackson cards (T210 my #1 pick)...so that would probably be my answer as well
