What card would you buy?

For me it would be a 1912 Garter or maybe a nice D304 Cobb. It's fun to dream If you inherited $10,000 to spend on a single card... Drunken_smilie

Even thought I don't want it for my t205, if I had that amount of money to burn I'd get the no stats Hoblitzell.

For me it'd be a significant 19th c card like an anson or kelly cabinet...or something like that!

Definitely an OJ/Gypsy Queen HOFer in the best grade I could get for the money.

I'm with you guys on the 19th century HOFers. Jerry, you could probably score a low grade Duke Delahanty for under 10k. I owned one myself about 6-7 years ago, and it cost me just under half that amount! It had a spot of paper loss on the background but Delahanty's image was undisturbed.

As for the Hobby no stats....I realize how tough a card it is, but could never bring myself to spend that kind of dough on a card that would be worth $30 if it weren't for a few missing lines of text on the back. Different strokes I guess.

The only reason I go for that card is because it is a set I'm working on and for the reasons you stated, I won't spend the money for it. Same goes for the Matty Cycle back. That is stupidity in this hobby at its best. But I've got $10k free money I could get both of those cards.

I would probably buy a 1914 crackerajack Matty, it's been one of my favorite cards for years, I love the pose! After that, I would go with a very clean crackerjack Ty Cobb because it's such a beautiful card.

Doesn't get much better than a clean CJ Cobb or Jackson. Nice choices. And don't get me started on the garters If you inherited $10,000 to spend on a single card... 417341

Jeff probably meant 1913 BG because Baker was left out of the 1912 set.

Hmm. Is there an E107 Waddell with a numerical grade for $10,000 or less? If so, I think I'd buy that.
