Here's my favorite card in my collection. It's also the first autographed card that I have ever pulled, I found it extremely funny when I pulled it since I am a huge Oakland A's fan. But this card is too cool and means too much to sell or trade it away plus it also helps that Kendrick is a great 2nd baseman.

![]() I pulled this card last year. Although it eventually went to another BO Member, it is my biggest and best Topps pull ever. This and my Montana RC are my favorite Topps cards ever. This one might be worth tracking down again

it not mine but i have always wanted one like this, but i just cannot afford it. Maybe one of these days i will be able to either buy one or pull one from a pack. But i think if it was pulled from a pack it would be even more exciting to have that card.

This is my favorite card and a prized part of my collection. The popularity of the 1956 set, the player (Hank Aaron), and design are all awesome:

![]() There is a story to go along with why this is my favorite Topps card. I wanted this card back when I was about 10 or so after reading a story about Eddie Murray. My uncle had one in his collection and the only way he would let me have it was if I dove off the high dive at the local pool. The thing is, I wasn't much of a swimmer back then and I almost drowned after jumping into the pool.....so I basically risked my life for the little piece of card board. My uncle lived up to his end of the bargain; however, I was able to only enjoy the card for about a year because it ended up getting destroyed in a fight with my brother. I treasured that card for the short time I had it. I have yet to replace the Murray RC in my collection, but I will one day!

For the card that started it all...
![]() 87 Topps was (like many) my first set of cards that I heavily collected. I had tons of doubles and decided that I needed a favorite player to follow so I counted up all the doubles for several of the stars and went with the highest. Darryl narrowly beat out Don Mattingly (my head says 24-23 but thats almost certainly wrong).

After pulling this card, I would always take it out and admire how clean and simple the design is. The card has such a large piece of memorabilia, perfectly cut and centered, such a beautiful card. It also happened to be a Philidelphia 76ers game-worn, Allen Iverson 1/1. The back of this card has a picture of the Jersey that the letter was cut from. In 2008 I decided to have it graded...it came back 9.5. One of the best examples of a Letterman that I have ever seen.

This has to be one of my favorite cards from my PC. I sometimes wish card designs would go back to the simplicity of what is now considered Vintage.

I can't get into my bucket but here is my fav from my PC, first "high" priced card I purchased. I was a huge henderson fan and spent a pretty penny on this one back in the day...
