+1

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

Ban me from Vintage Card Kingdom, and I fully understand its iconic status in our hobby, but I never fell under the sway of the T206 Honus Wagner. But of course I wouldn't mind having the card, as long as I were to pay 1970's prices for it, because then it could fund the rest of my hobby collecting for the decades to come when I sold it.

52 Mantle.

US Caramel Ruth.

Strip cards where Ruth looks like he’s wearing makeup and it looks nothing like him.

E90-1 Cy Young (Cleveland), D304 Napoleon Lajoie, any other cards where the image looks nothing like the player.

I know a lot of people like the Clemente rookie but I’ve always disliked it. I wish his 1957 Topps card was his rookie. One of my all time favorites.

I’ve never been a fan of the 41 Play Ball DiMaggio or Williams cards either.

As a life long Met fan any card with a player wearing a Yankees uniform. Makes collecting life a little bit easier too.

I second the 1963 Rose rookie. I still have one of those counterfeits that went around in the 80s in my main set as a sign of protest.

Interesting (and understandable). On the other hand, I like multiplayer rookie cards. I get a perverse kick out of seeing otherwise common players whose biggest claim to fame is that, by the grace of Sy Berger (or whoever made the final determination), they're the "other guys" on a superstar's rookie card.
