If you want to nominate cards that you don't see on any of the posts, feel free to include them here. Up to five cards (there has to be a limit) will be added to the existing five cards when it comes time to vote.
By then, the comments will be closed for nominations, and it will be time to put everything to a vote.
Nailed it with these 5. I'd argue strongly against replacing any of these. The Ryan is actually my vote as the #1 topps card of all time, and the Bench RC is obvious as well. Each league's best pitchers from the "year of the pitcher", and I Holtzman's RC is perfect. He was supposed to be the next Sandy Koufax, and did wind up haveing a pretty good career.
ReplyDeleteThis is not Holtzman's rookie card. He had his own card in the '67 set.
