    As much as I love the concept, you'd think of their first card unveiling [a card I happen to like somewhat...], that they would make the card appear centered! That bad bay is nearly miscut!
    I am actively buying MIKE SCHMIDT gem mint baseball cards. Also looking for any 19th century cabinets of Philadephia Nationals. Please PM with additional details.

    And then when you click on TOPPSCARDS.COM (above the card) they have the card against a WHITE background and you can't see where the card ends! LOL

    Funny that you say that. My first thought was what cards from this decade could possibly crack the top 30 but they'll manage to have 10 in there I'm sure. As if any card from the past 30 years could rank ahead of 52 Mantle, 52 Matthews, 54 Banks, 55 Koufax, 55 Clemente, 60 Yaz, 63 Rose, 68 Ryan, 70 or 71 Munson etc.

    The 01 Bowman Chrome Pujols could break the top 10

    Mike ... don't forget another obvious one ... '67 Seaver. How about a '52 Pafko???

    I shudder to think what I paid for my first '73 Ron Cey. I had just gotten back into collecting around 1993 or so and decided to complete some Dodger sets.

    This is a dumb campaign. Topps should realize that its not fair to compare readily available yet condition sensitive cards from the 50s and 60s with modern cards, especially some of Topps' most hyped 1/1s and other chase cards. The rankings should be broken into two sets- one for vintage, one for modern.

    The other thing is that there is no way I am going to go back and keep checking that website to see a new card everyday. Guess I'll wait 2 months and then go see the entire list.
    Successful transactions with: thedutymon, tsalems1, davidpuddy, probstein123, lodibrewfan, gododgersfan, dialj, jwgators, copperjj, larryp, hookem, boopotts, crimsontider, rogermnj, swartz1, Counselor

    Not going by value strictly

    #1 should be the 1968T 3D Clemente.... for scarcity and attractiveness

    But knowing these polls....
    #1 will be that fairly common overrated 2nd year card which was double printed of that extremely overrated drunk/"greenie" user who batted cleanup on the Yankees yet had only 4 seasons on 100+ RBI and ave 29 HRs/yr with a sub .300 Bat Ave for his downward slide after he turned 30 years old of a career.

    there, got my M.M. Rip in for the month image I feel good now


    Who do you think will be #2? That would be a good question IMO

    Others Top 10 should be...
    1961T Dice Game Mantle
    1951T ML AS Robin Roberts
    1951T ML AS Jim Konstanty
    1951T ML AS Ed Stanky

    I agree - Geez...it's Topps cards and the Topps website...at least have some better graphics on your own product.

    I'm gonna guess 53 Mantle...might be a lock for second.

    image Let's see here. The #1 card will be the 1952 Mantle, that means the #2 card will be the 1996 Topps Mantle Finest 1952 Reprint Refractor.
