Default those members aren't real

WE have around 3000 registered members. Those others are fake ones that get registered by trolls writing programs to register fake id's with forums using our type of software. If we follow the 80/20 rule, where only 20% of the people that watch the forum are in fact registered, then the amount of folks checking this forum out is still quite a bit. Even just the registered number is quite a bit but we use the 80/20 rule on that number, and say that only about 600 participate...we still have quite a few. Hopefully some of those folks will show their favorite cards. I have too many faves but here is one I like with a blank back....

Mine isn't prewar, and it likely pales in comparison to most of your choices, but here's one of my best, and easily my favorite:

May or may not be my favorite card - but it's probably my best.

Started collecting '82. Saw a picture of this card in an issue of "Baseball Cards" in 1983.......(remember those))......I was 12 at the time and thought to myself "I will probably never even see a real one"......the dream/quest started.....the dream was realized in 2009 with many thanks to a forum member who decided to sell....

Not my best, but easily my favorite... and the one that would be most difficult to part with! T202 Cobb seperated side panel... Wanted a Cobb in the worst way, but was collecting on an extremely tight budget at the time..

I put this in the October pickups too, but it's my best prewar card.

That Hugh Duffy is off the charts, always love seeing it. Beautiful 19th century imperial cabinet photo of HOFer Duffy, framed by a beautiful black mount with gold print.

This thread has been done somewhat recently . . .

Bruce - I couldn't agree with Joe more regarding your Duffy and every time you post it, it reminds me it's my favorite portrait image in the hobby.

Mine's a postwar card and it's a beater at that, but I'm still pretty proud of it.

The card itself is not in the best of shape, but it is without a doubt the best card in my collection...

My interests are more weighted towards what I can actually afford, this is mostly post-war stuff. However, I was lucky enough to track down some earlier stuff in the early days of ebay when you could still find some deals. I'd say my "best" cards are probably not pre-war though, but here are a couple favorites:

The Turkey Red and Ramley Ruckers and the Cracker Jack Wheat. I wonder what mine would grade if that Young is a one???

I love my 51 Bowman Mantle and 52 Topps Mantle, as they were the cards I always wanted, but I am really digging my 52 Topps Mathews as it is tough to find centered even if it is a "1".

Those are some amazing cards! Mine pale in comparison to the ones posted here but I'd say my two favorites are below. David, I'm with you on the woodcuts...love the red stockings one!

Ahhhh...The Creighton memorial Leslie's...Easily one of my favorites, and definitely near the top of my want list.. If I had it, I'd have probably posted that too..

I also have to say that Duffy cabinet is absolutely awesome...
