##### Cards that make you say WOW! #####

Hey guys, I thought it would be cool to start a thread of cards that make you say WOW!

The card that made me say WOW is this one. Not mine of course(I wish), I got it from an ebay auction.

    Will you knock it off with ###############. Are you that insecure that you always have to draw attention to yourself??

    Agreed but was that comment really necessary?
    So basically my kid won't be able to go to college, but at least I'll have a set where the three most expensive cards are of a player I despise ~ CDsNuts

    Don't a lot of people put some kind on thing to make the thread stand out for a type of thread like this?

    I don't always do it, only when its this type of thread.

    Probably since he has done it several times before and was called on it once. His reply about wanting the thread to stand out confirms it. I imagine we offered highlighting, bold and flashing graphics, he would be all over that.

    The t206s have some rare backs that command a premium, not an expert on subject but I think Hinda and American Beauty , a few others, are scarce backs and usually command more.

    Hey Tim,

    Not to familiar with all these vintage backs, but if you like something go for it.

    At some point I wanted to start a T212 Obak different backs, of course I never did, I only got 2 and I think theres 20 or something like that image

    I think I will get my son to help me in morning to try that, I enjoy looking at some of the others I see here. Appreciate the interest. Tim

    Yeah Tim, its always great to see another collector's cards, after all, a big part of collecting is being able to see other collector's cards image

    I always enjoy seing other people's cards and also showing off mine from time to time, its fun. IMO, whats the point of having cards if you won't share them. I'm not saying you image I'm just saying in general, people should show off their cards, because thats a big part of collecting I think.

    I look forward in seing your cards, do you have a PSA set registry??? If not, you should definetly try that some day, its the best man, really fun. I enjoy adding more cards to my registry as more and more guys are starting to collect my same set i'm going for, its fun to go back and forth with the guys.

    Alright Tim, hope youy can add some scans soon image

    I was searching the registry (the big guns on there need to add pictures!!!). This is taken from the 6th finest Goudey set. This card makes me go WOW!!!

    SMR on this is $60K. I imagine if one went up for sale, it would sell for more. Just think, there are actually 8 examples graded HIGHER. WOW!!!!
