Low Grade, High Volume
I have run this thought through my head before. I would go out and try and find the best low grade examples of the iconic cards in the hobby. Which is really what I have been trying to do since I was a kid, but this would be a war chest that I could have some fun with!!
Either that, or I would buy EVERY Dave Winfield rookie card I could get my hands on, control the market, corner the market. That would be sweet.

I'd rebuild the t206 set I was working on before I sold 8 years ago. Got to 373.. I've thought about starting again, but too many other projects, kids, life, and the rising prices don't make it feasible right now.

for 100k?
I'd buy 1880's and 1890's Old Judge HoFer then move to some mid-grade's of some caramel/tobacco HoFer's like Young, Cobb, Matthewson.... would have to weigh high grade vs. size of collection.

That said - my 100K would be mid grade (4-6) with high eye appeal: T3 Cobb 1921 Ruth 1934 Goudey Gehrig 1951 Bowman Mantle 1955 Clemente That should get me to 100k Last edited by hcv123; 09-17-2020 at 09:29 PM.

I'd buy a '52 Mantle and give it to his surviving sons...
This is an old clip. Maybe they have one now. They talk about not having his rookie card, but I think they are talking about the '52. Maybe they mean the '51 Bowman. But I don't know. I'd like to give them both of them. But I don't know if $100,000 would even be enough at this point. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VUriWlOARlc&t=1s

I think I'd buy $100k worth of Green Cobbs, go to sleep for a year, and sell for a much higher price a year from now, then I'd go about assembling the sets I want to put together.

Holy Cow! Looking at what I've acquired over the past year since I made this post and how much it cost I think I have answered my own question.

Plan B: Find and buy an orange E94 Honus Wagner (if it exists). Plan C would be to pursue the other orange E94s I need in the hands of collectors, making them Godfather offers they couldn’t refuse lol.
