+1 Agreed

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

I think the Anson is the most beautiful, despite my feelings on him as a player/person I can't deny it's a beautiful piece of cardboard.

[Tabe]

None of these cards hold a candle to the T-3 Ty Cobb in terms of beauty.

N162




The GOODWIN CHAMPIONS cards are my favorites. But, I cannot decide which of these two magnificent cards are the best.

I find it very interesting that the artwork reflects Anson being near the "sunset" of his BB career. And, Kelly's personality is
reflected by the stormy background scene.

This one gets my vote, and Leon's here is downright gorgeous, baby! Beats mine, bought in 1988, hands down!

I say "Crack 'em all!" But common since dictates that there most certainly are exceptions!

[mrreality68]

I say the silent majority indicates it’s the T3 Ty Cobb

So we Demand a new Poll

Or

We demand a Recount to be performed by

Cyber Ninja with the assist From the Ninja Turtles

[BearBailey]

None of these choices. T3 Cobb.
