1955 Topps #4, Al Kaline ⭐ Mr. Tiger
This second-year card of Al Kaline is iconic, IMO. I'm not a Tigers fan, per se, but I adore this card of Mr. Tiger.
In 1955, Al Kaline became the youngest player ever to win the American League batting title, achieving this feat at just 20 years old, edging out Ty Cobb's previous record by just days. He finished his historic 1955 season with a .340 average, 200 hits, and 27 home runs, cementing his legendary "Mr. Tiger" status early in his career. 

2004 Upper Deck Game Materials ⭐ Ty Cobb, #21/99
Upper Deck produced some really cool cards IMO.

2024 Leaf Ultimate Sports The Immortals ⭐ Ty Cobb, #1/8
I don't have any Ty Cobb playing days cards...yet.
So getting this card in the mail today, with pieces of history, is special for me.

1936 R311, National Chicle Premium (glossy) Mickey Cochrane ⭐
On December 3, 1933, the Philadelphia A's Connie Mack sold Mickey Cochrane to the Detroit Tigers for $100,000.
Mickey Cochrane was one of the greatest offensive catchers in baseball history.
He helped lead both the Philadelphia A’s and Detroit Tigers to multiple World Series titles.

Hank Greenberg is a legendary Hall of Fame Detroit Tigers first basemen & American Hero.
Greenberg was the first player in the American League to choose to register for the draft and he missed out on four prime years of his career as a baseball player while serving in the U.S. Army in World War II.
The 47 months Greenberg served as a sergeant in the Army are the longest any major league player has served in the U.S. Armed Forces.
