  • The Nolan Ryan rookie card. A friend of mine has one, and if I had the money back 15 years ago, I would have one, too. He paid $850 for it. It's a card that will probably never bring huge money, but could always be worth a nice chunk of change.
  • Lou Gehrig...my kid wrote to Gehrig's widow when he was young, saying how much he admired Gehrig and he received an answer from her. Who can forget the moving depiction of Gehrig by Gary Cooper? It would be Lou Gehrig, hands down, no contest! :)
  • Mine I suppose
  • If I had a Lou Gehrig card that would be the one I'd want to keep.
  • Babe Ruth
  • Believe it or not I have never seen a baseball game, I love European football though, my husband is a great football fan. I have always wondered why the US football, not played with the feet, is called football instead of perhaps kick ball and the one played else were is called soccer? Well I guess I will never know. Regards.
  • sm00z i'm gonna go with the crowd and say Lou Gehrig also
  • Manny Trillo! A personal favorite. I used to wait outside of Wrigley Field as a teenager hoping that he would see me in the crowd and fall INSTANTLY in love. Yes, yes. Nowadays we call that "stalking." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manny_Trillo
  • Jackie Robinson
  • Catfish Hunter - I just LOVE that guy!!
  • I have no idea, I'm not really a sports fan and don't really know baseball at all. I know that I'd sure like to get my hands on some of those really old ones that can bring in several thousand dollars each, though! lol
  • I'm a Cardinals fan...and I have some "oldies" from when I used to collect cards....like, Lou Brock and Stan Musial (and I have both of their autographs as well). Even though I don't actively collect anymore, I wouldn't want to give up either....but, if I could only keep one, I'd probably go with Stan...because he's "the Man."
  • 1952 Topps Mickey Mantle # 311 rookie card. A PSA 8 sold for $1.27 million in 2000. Beyond dollar value, this would be an awesome card to own.
  • I could easily say Honus Wagner tobacco card. I'm gonna go with my Brett Rookie mini. (for sentimental purposes)
  • A T-206 Honus Wagner: In February 2007, an owner sold the card to an anonymous collector for $2.35 million. Less than six months later, the card was sold to a California collector for $2.8 million. This Wagner card is the most valuable baseball card in history.
  • I don't know what these people are talking about because the card that I would keep would be a Honus Wagner, the rarest and most valuable baseball cards in the world, I'm a Mickey Mantle fan, but Honus Wagner is a lot more valuable.
  • thanks I never knew that
