In this Post I Guess the Topps 60 Greatest Cards of all Time Top Ten, #s 5-1...

And see how bad I fail this time too. A bit ago, I posted my guesses for the Topps 60 greatest cards of all time contest, numbers 10-5. 

Here are my guesses for the cards that will win top 5.  I'm just doing this for fun, and based on hunches I have about what cards will win it all.

As posted before, here is my philosphy on choosing the cards that I think will make the top ten: I think that people will vote with the accomplishments of the players in mind, not necessarily the aesthetics of the cards. Also important are the importance of the cards to the hobby as a whole. 

 
One of the best pitchers of all time. This card captures his boyish youth.
Teddy Baseball

I think Mickey makes the top five twice.

Does this need a caption?
One of the most important cards to the hobby. If this card doesn't get number 1, what would/could? I have a hard time singling out another card that is this iconic and/or desireable (minus the t-206 sets, of course).

 What do you think?
