Reds 1975 World Series
Reds 1990 World Series
Royals 2015 World Series
Magic Johnson at Michigan State 1978
Darryl Strawberry 1984 (my sister is going to get it autographed for me bc shes going to see him speak in a couple weeks)

Anyone have any recommendations for other issues I should get? I'm hanging them all in frames in my office. I'm going to do them in chronological order so it can kind of be a sports history wall.

And also, if anyone has any old ones saved, I'll buy them from you. But they have to be of significance. Thanks!
Here are some other good ones I found doing a quick online search:

Mike Tyson KO Michael Spinks (7/4/88) - 91 second KO
Battle of the Titans (5/22/95) - Jordan blocking Shaq
The Epic Battle (10/13/75) - Ali vs. Frazier
Miracle (3/3/80) - US beats USSR in hockey at Olympics
Four! (4/18/05) - Tiger wins Masters number 4
Pat Tillman (5/3/04) - Pat Tillman remembered for his unbelievable sacrifice
Dream Team (2/18/91) - Olympic Dream Team
Gordie Howe (3/18/57) - Mr. Hockey's only appearance on the cover I believe
Paul Brown (8/12/68) - Before Bengals inaugural season
Brandi Chastain (7/19/99) - USA Women's Soccer Team wins Gold.

Check out this site. You can buy any issue and have it framed. Seems reasonably priced too. http://www.sicovers.com/

Edit: I would add this one too: Ickey Woods (1/16/89) - Bengals going to the Super Bowl.
