Finally a video I can appreciate it! Highlighting cards that are favorites and not necessarily the most expensive! Much more interesting and personal way in sharing your cards.

[@SouthernCollector14]

@@edflood I am glad you enjoyed the video. I think everyone sharing their prized cards is a great thing. I love seeing them. I will do that someday. Just not this year. I do collect in a very personal way. I buy cards from an emotional standpoint. I also stay away from other cards for the same reason. Some players I just simply don’t like, so no matter how “great” they were, I just don’t get their cards. Thank you so very much for watching and commenting. I appreciate that more than you know!

[@ACD1994]

Great video, Tony. I did not expect to see a Jim Palmer rookie card here. And I say this as, a Baltimore Orioles fan. He just doesn't have much love in the hobby, so it seems. And he was one of the winningest pitchers (with a really great ERA) of his time. I also like the '59 Topps Frank Robinson. Not because he also played for the Orioles, but it's just a classic card. I love that '59 Topps design.

[@SouthernCollector14]

Hey Andrew. I agree with you on Palmer getting no love. He was a beast during his prime. Frank Robinson is another massive star that just kinda flies under the radar. Thank you so much for watching and commenting.

[@thecollectingnomad]

Great cards. Loved the woman’s baseball postcard and the e90 bender card. My favorites of the ones you showed. Great “not” collection. For most it would be a “top” collection. Many people would dream to have some of those cards. Thank you for sharing. Enjoyed the video.

Tons of awesome cards!!! Especially love the Benders who I've collected a few of as well. Where he lived when he got taken away from his family when he was a young boy (and was moved to Carlisle, PA) is not too far from where I live. I have a kid named Aaron that came about similar to your Ryan.

My favorite is the Jim Palmer, that is a beautiful card. I need to upgrade mine. I think it is great doing a video like this, especially with new vintage collectors. Reasonable cards without breaking the bank. I am going to do a completely different top 25 or 50 video tomorrow that will definitely get some people upset. :)

I like the Palmer rookie as well. It is a great card. I love looking at everyone’s prized cards. It is really cool seeing the diversity. I have shown some high priced ones in earlier videos. I appreciate you watching and being so positive about my video. I will have to check out yours as well

[@Lyrici17]

I might throw Ken Griffey Jr.'s 96-97 seasons (or 97-98, if you like the back-to-back 56 HR seasons more) as potentially the best 2-season period for a player into the ring. That said, even as a biased Mariners fan, I think you still have to give the Mantle the win on that..... Great showing of a bunch of cool cards... Thanks!

[@SouthernCollector14]

Griffey Jr is one of my favorite all time players. Those two years were definitely amazing. Ruth had several back to back monster seasons as well. Thank you so much for watching and commenting.

This was an awesome video. Loved looking at some really cool cards I have never seen. I really thought those Chief Bender cards were more expensive. Maybe they will be in the future.

I live in Crossville, TN and thought I would want to go to one of the Nashville shows this coming year. Is it worth it? Thanks

[@SouthernCollector14]

@@MichaelRader-vu1tt hey Michael. Some Bender cards in the higher grades go for premium prices. Those two were in a lower grade, but have great eye appeal for the grade in my opinion. That is a great combo to me. Makes them more affordable. I do go to the Nash-ional card show. I have made the fall show the last two years. I hope to make the spring show as well in 2025. It is a fantastic show. Several of the big national vintage dealers are there. It is definitely worth it. Thank you for watching and for the kind words.

[@cryptonite8495]

So these are #101 and lower in value? Can't wait to see the ones above the cutoff! You didn't mention it, but that 1958 Musial All-Star was his first Topps card. Bowman had him locked up, but 1955 was the last Bowman set. Why didn't Topps have Musial in 56 and 57? And if they had the rights to print an A.S. card in '58, why not a base card?

[@SouthernCollector14]

@@cryptonite8495 fantastic points about the Musial card offerings. I’m not sure of what Topps did that. It makes no sense at all. Check out some of my earlier videos to see my bigger cards. I love the ones in this video too or I wouldn’t have them. Thank you for watching and commenting!

[@cryptonite8495]

My favorite is the Chief Bender portrait, which I own as well. I wonder if his nickname, which was given to him by others, would be allowed in an age when teams from pro level down to Little League had to change their names. Except the KC Chiefs; I wonder why that is? Anyway, Bender is one of only two Native Americans in the HOF. Zach Wheat is the other.

[@SouthernCollector14]

@@cryptonite8495 he is one of my guys that I like to collect. Watch my Chief Bender episode from about a month ago. The nickname probably wouldn’t be politically correct. Charles seems to have adopted it though. I have a baseball with his signature on it. He signed “Chief” Bender on it. Thank you so much for watching and commenting!

[@DanielWPolk]

I like your inclusion of Chief Bender. He is underrated in baseball history. He was the first Native American inducted into the HOF (1953). He did have trouble with booze, and he may have killed a boy in 1917 (but he was exonerated), so I doubt he lives up to the moral standards of a guy like Musial.

[@SouthernCollector14]

Thank you! He is one of my favorite players to collect in the prewar era. Sounds like you are a fan as well. Check out my episode dedicated to Charles Bender. kzbin.info/www/bejne/aGm8nJhjebdqpqMsi=g9tODW7tvHa5aHSq I really appreciate you watching and sharing your thoughts.
