What is the THIRD most desirable card out there?

[triwak]

My top 10 dream cards (in any order):

1. 1914 Baltimore News Babe Ruth
2. 1863 Jordan & Co. Harry Wright
3. 1909 T206 Honus Wagner
4. 1869 Peck & Snyder Cincinnati Red Stockings
5. 1950 Toleteros Josh Gibson
6. 1909 Red Ty Cobb with Ty Cobb back
7. 1933 Goudey Nap Lajoie
8. 1952 Topps Mickey Mantle
9. 1909 Cabanas Pete Hill
10. 1887 Four Base Hits King Kelly

But then again I'm a leaflover.

But It's nearly impossible to rank anything by desire, there's so much to choose from.

That being said, I know this is a pre-war thread, and that's my main collecting focus, BUT the 1990 Topps George Bush and 1954 Bowman Ted Williams have always been intriguing.

Anyways, I think I'd have the 1869 Peck & Snyder Red Stockings team card in the top 3 somewhere, along with the 1934 Zeenut Dimaggio, and probably the Wagner.

I'd also wanna squeeze any of the 1893 Just So HOFers in there somewhere...

Wow Mike, nice Lajoie.

If you posted a picture of each of the cards listed I think the most selected cards (recognizable to the most people) would be...

Cracker Jack-Joe Jackson
Baltimore-Ruth
Goudey-Lajoie

Corey- I'm with you on the FBHs Kelly. It has it all. The M101-5/4 would be another great choice. This is Ruth's true rookie card. The Baltimore News card is a minor league card. You can call it a pre-rookie or a prookie, but it's not a rookie.
