Default cult following

How about Eddie Grant, Addie Joss, Jim Thorpe or McGraw's boy Ross Youngs.

Not including player-specific back runs, I have collected/do collect: Wagner, Cobb, Ruth, Jackson, Plank, Mathewson, Young, Thorpe, Moonlight Graham.

Aside from Plank, who is special in his own right, I collected these guys bc I feel like they are the most investable, prewar players, likely to yield the best risk-adjusted return over time; you could probably add Walter Johnson and Cap Anson to that list, but I never chased either.

I have poked around with Lajoie, Gehrig, Delahanty, Kelly, and Speaker, but never really got into any to a major degree.

Postwar, which I don’t really collect, I would go for Jackie Robinson, Mantle, Mays, Clemente, Aaron.

I am slowly collecting Yogi Berra signed cards
