Show us your Lincoln collectables!

[Thomas Kearney]

I like to collect baseball cards. While I did get a Shohei Ohtani rookie card in a pack of Topps Allen and Ginter baseball today, I thought back to middle school, when I heard Abraham Lincoln was going to get his own baseball card. The Exclusive Trading Card of MLB has covered the 16th president in their Allen and Ginter baseball card set from 2006 and 2008-2011, including a strand of Honest Abe's hair that I so desperately looked for to impress a girl. Check out these cards on Topps' revamp of the Allen and Ginter cigarette company trading cards, released every July since 2006. I tried to buy a DNA Strand card from 2009 on eBay but it cost just over $1K.

I have an insert of Topps 2018 Opening Day with Team Traditions that feature the Nationals Racing Presidents and Racing Abe is on the card, so I do own a baseball card with Lincoln on it.
