Post up some eye candy! They don't have to be expensive - just post a pic (or pics) of cards that make your eyes happy. They don't even have to be yours. A couple of mine that I've posted this week:
more to come later .... let's see yours!

I have always loved the action photos from 1971 Topps. A few that come to mind:
Not mine (but really wish they were):

A few cards from my personal collection that I find visually appealing.
I'm very partial to Reds and the color red.

The common denominator here - all great designs!!

2 cards from my childhood collection, recently slabbed. Love the action shots and colors on these.
not eye candy, but how bout an eye tobacco card?

probably one of my favorite cards ever due to its shape and uniqueness.
I purchased this 87 Fleer Jordan in 2015. No regrets.
This 61 Maris I purchased back around 2013. I am pretty happy with this one. So much that I feel like I don't need a (more expensive) PSA 9 in my life.
I've had PSA look at this twice and they refuse to bump. Odd when looking other PSA 8's of this card.

a ton of candy there. while not the sexiest, certainly not even close to being worth the most or probably even as heavily collected, that '76 brett is probably the toughest card outta the bunch. usually plagued with every qualifier possible ranging from snow and pd to tilt and to being mc'd.
i'd say there's probably 1 in 100 mantles that may have that kinda eye appeal while it's probably a 1 in 250 ratio w the brett. it's also one of the very few cards where a second year in a psa 9 is worth more than a rookie. ironically enough, ya got another one these rarities up there as well w/ the '71 munson. you won the internet today w that display. congrats!

Time for some hockey! This is one of my favourite in action shots of the Rocket circa 1955.

Always liked the look of this card with the Gold and the jersey colors.
01 SP Authentic may be one of my favorite card designs of all time. Really think these cards pop when you look at them.

Nice cards fellas. Thanks for the thread. Appreciated
One of my favorites from my collection consigned over to Heritage
I like these cards with multiple layers and transparency. My horrible pictures don't do them justice.

This card is featured on Cardboard Connection's website as being one of the Holy Grails of Floyd Mayweather Jr cards. I picked it up recently, it is the 2010 Ringside Boxing Turkey Red Onyx 1/1 Floyd Mayweather Jr.
