4BH Kelly is a nice card.

A few cards from the player who received my vote. This player's career lined up perfectly with some glorious sets, and avoided some with sketchy artwork/poor photos. And he just seemed to know how to pose for portraits, and his graceful style is captured in all the action cards featuring him. Show me an ugly Nap Lajoie card...I dare you!

Larry got my vote too. There's a certain regal air to his poses. For example, his T3 card. Larry isn't just looking at the field; he seems to be presiding over it.

I think you have nailed it! He has such a commanding presence, and most of his cards showcase this.

Some great cards posted!

That Novelty Cutlery image of Walter “Johnston” is so clear, and what an incredibly early postcard of him!

Very cool Orange Border of Lajoie. And I agree that Lajoie looks he presides over the game. What a presence. Maybe that’s why they named a team after him.

Looks like Cobb and Mathewson are the favorites so far. Can’t disagree—so many amazing issues of them.
