For the card collecting experts; Who offer the best variety of minor league baseball cards in the web? And, for regional cards?
:crossfingers:Thanks for the help.

Are you looking for a national set of minor league cards, team sets, or singles?

I order team sets directly from the team's web sites. For national sets, TriStar, Donruss, and Razor all make sets of recent draft picks and minor leaguers. You can find singles/lots/packs/boxes of most of them on eBay. For single cards, I use www.sportlots.com.

Hope this helps!

Mostly Minor league cards singles.

I'm sure you could find some on eBay. Sportlots is a bit more sporatic for minor league stuff...most of what they have is mostly at least a couple years old. To search for it, search for "baseball" and a year, then pick "team issue" if it comes up, or brands like "BBM" or "Grandstand".

Hope this helps.

definitely Dave Weber for singles. MinorLeagueSingles.com (http://www.minorleaguesingles.com). He doesn't have an online inventory, but he has the largest inventory of singles and can give you detailed lists of what he has for each player. His information is a lot more complete than Beckett or SCD as far as cataloging minor league sets. You'll probably end up paying a little more with Dave, so I'd recommend hitting SportLots first, but Dave can probably fill in most of the gaps you have left. He's been a huge help with my Bernardo Brito, Hensley Meulens, Tuffy Rhodes, Steve Howard, Roberto Kelly and Dann Howitt collections.

Just telling you this for fun; but it is true. With enough money you could buy a minor leage card of Babe Ruth - before he was a rookie!
This card features Ruth as an unknown minor league rookie straight out of St. Mary's Industrial School for Boys.

What Era of Minor League cards are you looking for??? I have many from the PCL 1909-1950s.

PS. That 1914 Baltimore News Babe Ruth card is my all time favorite, and should easily be the most valuable card.

The 1914 Baltimore News card show players from the Minor League Baltimore Orioles and also the Baltimore Terrapins of the Federal (Major) League. It should be the most valuable card, but.....

The T206 Wagner is so overrated and far from rare (50-60 examples known). The Ruth is about 10 times rarer and over 10X more important, and best of all comes in red or blue :)
