Show a card with a tack hole in it

[Jobu]

I got this recently and am surprised by how little the hole in the card bothers me. In fact, I find it kind of cool that a 105 years ago a kid liked this card enough that he wanted to put it on his wall so that he could look at it every day.

Let's see your cards that a kid decided to hang on his wall like artwork.

OK. I survived the first one.

Here's a Cobb Turkey Red that I once had in my set.
I didn't mind the tack hole as it had a half moon effect above Ty's head
and I thought if the hole wasn't there the card would have been graded higher & thus out of my budget

A couple of Pinkertons, one REALLY shows a lot of love!

I got these two severely trimmed and tack-holed HOFers from completely different sources, and have always believed that they probably came from the same collection, 120 years ago. I like that.

T3s with tack holes are some of the best values around, IMO.

+1. First thing I thought when I saw this thread.

[aquarius31]

Most of my T3's have at least one tack hole among other issues

[mrmopar]

My best tack hole card.

I really like this thread and wondering where all of the examples hung and the stories behind them.
I wonder if Kevin C.'s OJ got the "Authentic" based just on the pin hole alone.

It should not have (the Ryan card I mentioned has a number grade), but who knows? The card appears to be otherwise perfectly fine (size and back).

Used a railroad spike on this one.
