For me, it's a very tough call between Anson and Kelly, but I opted for Anson.

Terrific "Final 5", but I might've selected the T3 Cobb in place of Gehrig. I realize you probably didn't want 2 Cobbs in the poll, so perhaps the T3 Fred Clarke would've been my personal #5.

Great stuff!

I voted Anson, but more so I can see the results of the poll. While the cards chosen are very pretty, I will take almost any T3 over all fibe options. To me, the T3 is the most stunning set bar none and each cabinet is nicer than the next

Regarding the T3s ... I agree, but never included them due to them being cabinets. They are among the most beautiful / drool worthy cards ever!

I voted for the N162 Kelly...of all 5 cards it has the most beautiful storm brewing in the background. And in my opinion inclement weather lurking behind a player is what makes for an iconic card.

1. N162 Kelly
2. T206 Cobb bat off
3. N162 Anson
4. 1933 Goudey Ruth
5. 1934 Goudey Gehrig
