I don't have a favorite player, but I have several cards of several players. I'll just add another here of Callahan for Leon:

Leon, I have actually been toying with the idea recently to start collecting a few players. I have specifically been thinking about both Babe Adams and Ed Abbaticchio. Babe because he was a really good player, and Ed because of his ties to the first pro football team (Latrobe). Still not sure if I will end up doing it or not, but it seems like it may be a fun change of pace.
As some may already know I already collect cards of one player named Roy Castleton. I am currently only 2 known cards shy of having all of his individaul cards (his D311 and his Western Playground).       -Rhett

I won't bore folks with posts of Lajoie/Cleveland cards that I've shown before, but I did want to check in and say to anyone who's debating about collecting a player: After you've reached a point where there's not that many cards left of your player that you don't already have and you're able to pick one up, it really is a great feeling.
I've put together a few tougher sets, and until I completed them there was always a gnawing feeling that I needed to cross off the last few from my want list. I haven't found that to be the case collecting Lajoie cards. There are a number I do not have, but, to me, it's a more relaxed chase. I highly recommend collecting a player.

Not vintage, but I collect everything of Tom Seaver. This has led to some interesting type cards, including a 1981 card from Korea. I'll post them in a second. I don't seem to be able to add pictures while editing a thread.

I also have thought about starting a collection based on Ed Abbaticchico, but for a different reason. He is considered to be the first Italian-American to play major league baseball. That's him on my avitar.
