Most Valuable Card in your Collection

[Snowman]

This card isn't worth the most to the market, but it's worth the most to me.

...Disregard. It looks like my account is restricted from uploading photos larger than a thumbnail. I was going to post a photo of my 52 Topps Jackie Robinson, but I'm sure everyone here knows what that looks like already. So just picture a big red card with white borders.

The three cards in my collection that probably mean the most to me...

-52 Topps Mantle is the most "valuable"...the card I always wanted but could never afford when I first started collecting.
-T207 Weaver is my current favorite (I love collecting Black Sox cards)
-84 FleerU Puckett...I was a huge Puckett/Twins fan when I was younger and first got into baseball and card collecting.

I Never imagined when I started that this trio would be in my collection

Ted,

I can appreciate the other 2 monsters but that Mays signed '52 is simply amazing! Wow! Thanks for sharing. I don't think I've ever seen one before!



Peace, Mike

Nice cards ... didn't know Weaver had a T205 ..

[Robextend]

Got this about 14 years ago - still #1 for me.

Beautiful cards, everyone! Here is my contribution:

[cardsagain74]

Change of pace here....even though I'm a baseball guy at heart, I still have a ton of nostalgia for the NBA growing up in the '80s. Was a huge Lakers fan back then, and watching their playoff battles with the Celtics were some of my most fond memories of growing up. Hearing Dick Stockton's voice still takes me back.

So this card may be even more valuable to me than anything in my baseball card collection. The fact that it's an amazing 7 without much of the typical factory print for it doesn't hurt!

[mrreality68]

This is a great thread and I love all the different cards.

Not surprising that Mantle and Cobb are leading the pack not to far behind by Ruth.

Like Ryan, I would like to inject a little love to the Wagner's

Not fortunate enough to get any Rookie Cards but here is my contribution

[vthobby]

Wilt signed Rookie (one of 3 known to exist)

Pack fresh Satch with likely some 5 year old kid's scotch tape on him (who could have blamed that kid!)

Ted— that trio is insane. Phenomenal feat. Something you do not see every day.

Signed Wilt— wow. And the focus and sharpness of that Paige is wild.

Will try and get a picture although some of my E121-120 Ruth’s may give it a run for the money

I don't think it's just your account.. I've always wondered how this board only allows miniscule images to be attached in 2021...

but anyways, what was your card??

Ya, this forum could benefit greatly from some updated software and ImageMagick. I would switch everything over to Xenforo if I were the admin. They have some great forum software that could completely transform the user experience here. Especially with respect to the B/S/T threads, easily uploading pics of all sizes that get converted to ideal sizes that fit within the thread (so no more massive photos that blow up a page, and no more thumbnail sized pics). Also helps tremendously with organizing the sub forums and makes content easier to find. Also much better search functionality and capability. Also can search PMs efficiently. Can set up private group threads and implement all sorts of controls. Can "like" posts. Can maintain a user feedback rating for the B/S/T threads where buyers and sellers leave feedback just like you would on ebay. It also can be used via iPhone or Android app. Just click on the Net54 app on your phone and everything is perfectly formatted.

I know people will start accusing me of being a Xenforo shill now, but it really is great forum software. And it wouldn't be too difficult or costly to convert.

My card was a 52 Topps Jackie Robinson for most valuable to me, and a basketball card (lebron james RC with Michael jordan dual auto) for most valuable to the market.

This would be my most valuable card. 1908 Greenville Spinners (12" by 14") cabinet photo with Joe Jackson.

Truly another great Jackson photo that is lonely and looking for a way home.

Daddy is waiting for you

That's one heck of a trio, Ted!

Beauty cards from everyone else too!
