With the card industry thinking that it's the late 80s / early 90s with pricing going silly (and the grading of everthing ruining my love of buying $5 boxes of junk wax to give away to the kids I coached or open with my son, but that is a completely different rant...), I thought that I would go in the other direction...

What is your favourite in your collection that costs around a dollar and why?

Mine would be the 1981 O Pee Chee Mike Schmidt

1) It was one of the first years growing up that I remember going to the convenience store to buy packs.

2) The Phillies had just won the world series and Schmidt was the MVP.

3) It added more stats so I could go through even more numbers.

I'll do cards listed at exactly a dollar on TCDB. 

Baseball: 2020 GQ Tarot of the Diamond Noah Syndergaard.  It looks cool. He's a good player. It's from a set that I don't buy, so I'm lucky that I got it. 

Basketball:  1974-75 Topps Wes Unseld. Excellent player. Defunct team name - Bullets. 

Football:  1969 Topps Jerrel Wilson.  One of the best punters ever. One of my oldest cards. Fits quite nicely in my special teams collection. 

In each sport...worth more than a dollar, but my favorites right now.

Football

Basketball

Hockey

Non-Sport
