What can you gents tell me about this card? A quick search yielded an image of 10K leaning against some bannister sort of thing. I can't say I know anything about this card. Given the dissertations continually written about the T206 Wagner, Plank, etc I was kind of surprised that there wasn't much out there about this card.

Incredibly rare card with a great picture. Owning any 4BH is a coup. Owning the Kelley is a whole other story. It's the card in the set and as you can see one of the most coveted 19c cards.

Here is a link to the Baseball Card HOF. Pretty much every card that is in this thread is in there. The ones that are not are probably good candidates for induction.

In 1983...my top 10 would have been:

T206 Wagner
T206 Plank
T207 Lowdermilk
33 Goudey Ruth...probably batting
33 Goudey Lajoie
49 Leaf Paige
52 topps mantle
54 topps aaron
63 topps Rose
67 Topps Seaver

My top 10 Now...hmmmm...to be continued!

hmmm...in 1983 mine would have been:

t206 Wagner
t206 Plank
Goudey Lajoie
Four Base Hit Kelley
e90-1 Mitchell
t207 Lowdermilk
t210 Jackson
t210 Stengel
Duke Delehanty
e107 Matthewson

Now you guys are just showing off. My top ten in '83, anything that cost a penny at the used book store. Maybe those Topps Football Dickerson, Marino, Elway Rookies.... or was that '84?

I wasn't quite as sophisticated as Jay back in 83'...I was only 14 for crying out loud!!!!!! And I remember scoffing at $7 for a seaver rookie and $25 for an aaron rookie...where the hell would I get that kind of $$$$$$?!?!?!?!

Yeah, $25 or even $7... that's a lot of strawberries/raspberries to pick at my summer job. Not sure what path my life would have taken if I had unlimited resources at 11.

Back in 1982 I had to think about paying $7 a piece for t205 commons that came straight from packs and paid $200 for a complete set of t201s in Ex+ condition. Just crazy prices back then, lol.
