Two cards I don't own:

N162 Kelly
T205 Cobb

I don't know how you get more beautiful than those two.

I have many favorites, but here is a top candidate: The E101 of Christy Mathewson (the various E92 issues, the E102, E106, D303 and T216 cards with the same artwork would qualify too).

I couldn't agree more, Al. And thanks for auctioning this one so I could get it back in my collection. I have always thought the T205 Cobby might be the best looking card in the hobby.

I know this is sacrilege and I am at risk of being banned, but the T205 Cobb always reminds me of Michael Dunn (Miguelito Loveless on The Wild Wild West.)

Count me in the legion of '53 Bowman Pee Wee fans. Actually his 1952 Berk Ross is up there for me as well. If the photo and print quality matched the pose quality it would be even higher in my esteem!

I’ve always been fond of that Berk Ross image of Reese because it’s comparable to an item
in my collection. One of my favorite images is this original photo from when he was in spring training in Havana.

Great photo, but one that leaves you wondering what baseball action this is supposed to depict--Pee Wee is diving toward a base, but he has a glove on. So it seems he is not supposed to be a baserunner. But then again he has no ball in his glove, so it's not like he is supposed to be a fielder diving to the base before the runner gets there.

Still a cool photo. And they left out his "middle name", which is fun too.
