Top 100 Football cards of all time according to Beckett

Davemri

Does anyone have the November 2007 (i think) football beckett? It has listed the top 100 FB cards of all time and I was just curious to see the list. Can anyone help me out?

Thanks

Dave

Tried to google the snot out of it but I can't find it. Hope someone can scan it into PDF for us.

Here are my top 10 off the top of my head.

# 1 Bronko
# 2 Hate to say it by 1965 Namath
# 3 1958 Jim Brown
# 4 1957 Johnny U
# 5 1966 Sayers
# 6 1935 Rockne
# 7 1962 Fran Tarkenton
# 8 1957 Bart Starr
# 9 1981 Joe Montana
#10 1955 Four Horsemen

I know I will get drilled but hey, I'd take all of these and I only own two (#8 and #9)

I would think the 48 Baugh would be up there as well.

One of the most overlooked and underappreciated non-HOF rookie cards:

1950 Feltback Joe Paterno

recbball

I think I remember reading that article. If it's the one I'm thinking of you will be disappointed, has alot of new crap in the top 100.

Morgoth

I was thinking if it was beckett they would include new crap to keep their readers happy about spending money on their magazine which is for modern collectors. They will look just as foolish as Joe Orlando did in his book about the top 100 cards in the hobby when he included the 1990 Leaf Sosa and 1985 McGwire.

Gotta lot of old becketts but not this one........

Blackborder

Off the top of my head.

48 Baugh
57 Unitas
65 Namath
58 Brown
76 Payton
54 Blanda
55 Thorpe
55 Horsemen
72 Staubach
66 Butkis
86 Rice
84 Marino
84 Elway
1888 N162 Goodwin Champions Beecher (this card is more important than Nagurski in my opinion)

TheHun

Where's the "Refrigerator" Perry rookie ?

or the "soon to be elected" O.J. ?

Your probably right. Someone mentioned a while back that the 01 SP Vick was a major card....

Davemri

Bump.. Anyone have this issue?

i think i actually remember the becket.. it was the one with drawings of montana and troy aikman on the cover.... it might have only been the top 50 of all time though. i think this should be the top 10

1) 1935 bronko
2) 1965 Namath
3) 1958 Jim Brown
4) 1952 Bowman large Frank Gifford
5) 1957 Jonny U
6) 1971 Bradshaw
7) 1976 Payton
8) 1983 Jogo Moon
9) 1984 USFl Young
10) 1981 Montana

The following should be up there .. but are a little too modern
2000 Tom Brady SP authentic
1998 Manning SP authentic
1989 Score barry sanders
1990 Score Emmitt smith

This one ruined the hoby and should be mentioned.. this started the insert/chase card era..
1990 pro set lombardi hologram

FavreFan1971

Moon? Are you kidding? Top 10? Not even close

eagles33

while i don't think moon is anywhere near a top 50 player.. and i'm not even a moon fan.. i do think that his 83 jogo card is one of the top 10-20 football cards of all time. It is by far the most difficult modern football card to find in any grade... the vince lombardi hologram isn't a great card by any means either.. but i think it belongs in the top 50 football cards. thats just my opinion anyways.. if it were a top 50 players rookies.. it would be a very different list.

VitoCo1972

I think the top 10 (in no order) that I would like to own would be:

48 Leaf Sammy Baugh
35 Chicle Bronko Nagurski
57 Topps John Unitas
33 Sport Kings Red Grange
58 Topps Jim Brown
71 Topps Terry Bradshaw
62 Topps Fran Tarkenton
50 Bowman Y.A. Tittle
65 Topps Joe Namath
76 Topps Walter Payton

Others (like an 81 Montana or anything more recent than that) are just so plentiful that I could own one in reasonably high grade for not a lot of money. I think that has to count when considering which would be the most fun to own for me.
