You already know the story behind the T206 set, and all of it's luster. But do you know Hall of Famer Sam Crawford, aka "Wahoo Sam"? Well, you should. He's the all-time leader in triples, and I think it's safe to say that's a record that won't be touched (309). Not only could the guy fly around the base paths, but he was also a slugger, as he led the league in home runs twice, and RBIs three times. Some argue that he's one of the best hitters of all-time, and according to the "Gray Ink Test", Crawford was a
Jackie Robinson broke the color line in major league baseball in 1947, and his rookie card, issued by the Leaf Gum Company one year later, broke the color line in post-war baseball card sets. The skip-numbered set featured the Brooklyn Dodgers sparkplug to six World Series during his career, along with a host of past and future Hall of Fame Players.

I mean, we all acknowledge the fact that it happened, but do we care as much about that as we do about Barry Bonds or Alex Rodriguez and their alleged damage to the integrity of the game? I think not. Probably because we didn't live through it that it doesn't impact us as much and it’s
Another great card hailing from the 1915 Cracker Jack set is that of pitching great, Walter Johnson. You can make an argument that he's the greatest pitcher of all-time, as he's the only one in the history of baseball to win 400 games, while striking out over 3,000 batters. He's also won the baseball "pitching triple crown" on three separate occasions, dominating the field in wins, ERA, and strikeouts.
