1 card from each post war decade
If you had to choose one card between 1950-2000 from each decade for your collection and that's all you could have, what would you choose and why? Some you may already have, some you may not.
For me it's... 1950s - 1952 Topps Mantle - Pretty obvious 1960s - 1968 Topps Ryan RC - I was a huge fan of his as a kid 1970s - 1971 Topps Munson - Possibly the greatest action shot of all time 1980s - 1982 Topps Traded Ripken RC - Classic card/pose in a decade of junk 1990s - 1993 SP Jeter RC - I'm a big Jeter fan, even bigger Yankees fan

I am a Yankee fan and my choices below clearly reflect this:
1950s - 1956 Topps Mantle - couldnt afford the 52, this card won in a coin toss with the 53 Mantle due to their vivid colors and poses 1960s - 1965 Topps Mantle- similar to above, with the 65 winning in a coin toss against the 60 Topps Mantle, with again the color and poses on each the deciding factors 1970s - 1971 Topps Munson - my favorite card from the 70s...Munson was my first Yankee hero. A copy of this card was a gift to me in the late 70s and I still have that copy(as well as many others) 1980s - 1984 Topps Tiffany Mattingly RC - a rarer RC of my second Yankee hero 1990s - 1991 Desert Storm Chipper Jones RC---a tough RC of a first ballot HOFer |

50's - 51 Bowman Mantle as I'd rather have a "true" rookie card
60's - 68 Topps Nolan Ryan RC, he was my favorite player as a kid *now this may break the rules, I dunno...the original post didn't say it had to be all baseball even though this is in the baseball section 70's - 76 Topps Walter Payton RC 80's - 86-87 Fleer Michael Jordan RC 90's - 92 Upper Deck Heroes Autographs Ted Williams |

50's - 1951 Mantle Wheaties (such an undervalued card given the scarcity and significance)
60's - Topps Push-pull Mantle/Berra or 1968 Topps Ryan (to close to decide) 70's - A beater card my grandfather found in a wall while doing construction. No clue who the player is but wouldn't trade it for anything. Nice to have a genuine grandpa/found in wall card 80's - 1987 Donruss Maddux Rookie - I tried so hard to pull this card. Eventually my mom took pitty and bought me one 90's - Nolan Ryan - he has several really nice 90's cards I would gladly take if offered. My favorite is likely the one with his face all bloody (can't recall the year/manufacturer), but he looks so tough there. |
