Put my vote down for the T3 Ty Cobb. That's been my favorite card since I first saw T3s in the mid-80s. Maybe someday I'll actually own one

I want to cast my vote with the majority view that the T3 set contains the best looking cards ever made.
And the Speaker is the best of all. But since Scott already posted Speaker, I'll settle for posting my favorite non-T3 card: scan0001.jpg |

One of the most aesthetically under-appreciated cards in the T206 set is the Nap Rucker portrait. He's not famous, but he was one hell of a pitcher. This is one I'd love to upgrade.

![]() I think T206 portraits in general are the best looking cards in my opinion. When you line them up (especially against that black SGC background) they're absolutely stunning. ![]() I tend to stick to T206 portraits but I do collect George Bell (hands above head) cards just because I love the look. ![]() Last edited by ZachS; 05-30-2014 at 08:53 AM. |

Oh ya, Zach, I agree with you completely. I love the entire set, but the portrait cards are by far my favorites in the set.

Chase definitely had some good looking cards. For me the pink portrait takes the cake!

I wouldn't seriously call this all-time #1 but since we're posting a few longshots... the detail on this is riveting and due to large size really shows up...

Not my card -- but I think of all the amazing Harry Wright cards, this is the quintessential 19th century card in terms of aesthetic appeal:

For looks the N321 Creole set is IMHO the answer to the question this thread asks. I think the e95 Bender is another good looking card.

Well, if we're not limiting this to cards only, allowing post cards and cabinets in, I have another few I'd like to include for consideration:
![]() ![]() The M101-2 Sporting News Supplements, about as beautiful as you can get. Just the greats of the game photographed as they were.
