Default What is Your Favorite Card?

I love seeing threads that showcase all of your best hits but I would like to see what everyone's favorite card is. I want you to post your favorite (not most valuable) card and tell why exactly its your favorite

I couldn't choose one so I chose three. i picked these three because I'm a die hard Yankees fan and I just love how the old timers played.

Kind of cheating here but I had a Blowout member make some custom cards for me to send to spring training. I sent to 7 players and Travis Snider was the only one that mailed them back. He was already my favourite before, but this really made me happy:

Everyone seems to post threads asking for your favorite card, and then post 5 of their own or something.

Remember looking at Becketts as a kid and always thought it would be cool to own one of those cards (1951 Topps Red/Blue Backs).

1980 Topps Rickey Henderson RC

It was the first year I collected cards, and he was a favorite. I have always liked the base stealers.

Kenny Lofton, and now Ben Revere. Revere will end up being a favorite since he plays for the Twins.

I cant pick









I will have to go with either the Rendon because me and my girlfriend pulled it. But I love the Trumbo because I bought it for $300 when no one was giving him any credit and thought he would be positionless.

Saw this on a sell sheet when it came out, and always wanted it. Stumbled onto a couple weeks ago at a show.

My favorite baseball card was my Nolan Ryan '87 Topps that I have since it was pulled at Christmas '87. Now it has been replaced by a Mike Scott Fan Favorites auto. It is the '87 design and he was my favorite Astros as a kid. He was dominant for a few years and led the league in K's one year. I got it from a member on here for less than $10. I will post a pic when I get home.
