2 or 3 days before my wedding I asked my wife if I could put my George Kittle card in my suit jacket. She said yes without any hesitation which I was utterly surprised. She has been suportive of my collecting to when I say "I will sell it all", she tells me no. I had written in my vows that I was happy she supported me with my sports card addiction, and proceded to pull out my George Kittle card. I only share this story because it was funny and fun at the same time. 

I know that some of you have cards in your walet or keep close to you at a desk, etc. Share your cards, where you keep them, and pictures are always welcome. Mine is in my profile picture. I will be bringing it to work soon but have to clean off a spot on my desk.

I have my 1978 topps Nolan Ryan my Gram gave to me in 1994.  I keep separated from all of my other cards it's a memory and a keepsake to me

I don't have a specific card I keep close to me (I do have a Don Bradman 20c coin I got in Australia that I keep in my wallet for some reason) but I did carry this https://www.tcdb.com/ViewCard.cfm/sid/71416/cid/7223600/1994-Dynamic-Series-1---Signature-Gold-SG3-Brad-Mackay rugby league card around with me a lot when I was a kid — and boy does the condition show it!

Not one card but my Topps Flagship sets '80-present are always within arms reach from my desk.  They will always be the focal point of my collection.

81 Fleer Eckersley -- the first card of (an eventual) HOFer I ever owned. Nowhere close to mint condition, but it's one of a handful of cards that got me hooked on the hobby.

1962 Topps Managers Dream is always on my desk. Mays and Mantle!! 

An old girlfriend gave me a super nintendo and a Score Eric Lindross rookie card for my birthday. At the time she would not have been wrong to demand an engagement ring from me on the spot. And I was dumb not to offer it.
