It's called "Got Em, Got Em, Need Em" and I just picked it up from my local Barnes & Noble.
It has a "Top 100" sports cards list, authors opinion of course, but pretty close to what most would look like I'd suppose.
If you don't have it, maybe give it a look next time you're at your local book store. I enjoyed the read and in depth coverage on each card.
Top 3 I'll let you know what they were right now lol
1. 1952 Topps #311 Mantle
2. 1986 Fleer # 57 Michael Jordan
3. 1933 Goudey Babe Ruth
They lead it off with "The God Card" , meaning basically the one card that obviously would lead the list, but is pointless because it's virtually unattainable by 99% of the collecting population. I'm sure all expert collectors already know which card that is lol!
Just figured I'd share!

Cardboard connection made a top 10 list of best sport card collecting books. I recently purchased them and have been making my way down the list. The book you mentioned is next for me. Looking forward to it.
