What's your 311?

Mr. Stone's awesome post about the number 311 got me to thinking. Most vintage card collector's would know immediately that the 1952 Topps Mantle is card #311, and arguably it is the most "widely known" sports card number of all-time. Are there any other 311's out there, or do you have your own 311 for personal reasons (perhaps the last card you've needed for a set for a while).

For me, #201 (1954 Kaline) comes to mind as a "popular" one, and #192 (1955 Jim Delsing) is a personal one, as it was the last one I needed for my 55 Topps set.

    I would guess 1989 UD #1 Griffey Jr. would be on a few lists.

    You nailed it for me, 1954 Topps Kaline. I have a PSA 5 that looks much better that I will keep always!!

    Agreed with my fellow Michigan peeps here, I love the 1954 Topps Kaline. In my book, it is tied with the 1954 Topps Howe.

    Never really had one.

    Did have one for a bit - in 1992 - Fleer Ultra #44 - Frank Thomas - he was so hot - we could easily trade this card for what we wanted.

    For basketball collectors it is #57. You could add #101 as a personal one as well.
