Here's mine - so I guess Sean and I think alike! Can't beat three North-Side HOFers on one card!

More than one and all were collected by my father as boy. These are really what got me started with prewar collecting.

Sorry to break the rules, but I've got 2. They are 1979 Topps Clint Hurdle and Mike Krukow. Both are in pretty bad condition, so there's no chance of anyone else even wanting them. I started collecting in 1977, and finished my first team set (Orioles) in 1978. In 1979 I was just 2 cards short of finishing the whole set. I checked with other kids in the neighborhood, but no one had the cards. I went to a local card shop (yes...there was one near me in 1979), and there were 2 other collectors who already had them on their "need" lists, including 1 who also only needed these 2 cards. I then went to visit my grandparents for a week, and brought my cards with me. Everyday my grandfather and I would walk to the store and buy 5 to 10 packs. Still no luck. The day before I went home, my grandmother came back with an entire box. I broke them open, and found my 2 treasured cards. My first set was complete. My grandmother died in 1981.
These cards will be buried with me. |

My favorite would be nothing special to most...a PSA 7 1959 Topps Rocky Colavito. Even though he's before my time, the Rock is my all time favorite Tribe player and it's my favorite card of his. It's also the card that got me back into the hobby.

It is so hard to choose just one card from my OJ set, but the two below are right up near the top because of how long I pursued them (many years), how I obtained them (nail-biting auction for Williamson and trade with a top collector for Alcott) and what they mean to me (Williamson to match up with my Ewing and mascot and Alcott to complete my Old Judge team subset).
