'53 Bowman, by a large margin.

After that-
'67 Topps
'65 Topps
'71 Topps
'55 Topps
'56 Topps

Partial to 54 Red Heart, 56 Topps and, 52 and 53 Bowman.

1959 Bazooka. Second choice is 1955 Bowman, probably because, if I remember correctly, that was the year my folks first got a TV.

IMHO, this thread should be moved to the post-War section of Net54.

1965 TOPPS

followed closely by:

1967 TOPPS

1959 Topps. My dad gave me his when I was a boy and they got me started in collecting.

Hands Down - !955 Topps - Just Beautiful

I vote for 1949 Leaf. They look like baseball cards by Andy Warhol.

[LEHR]

My favorite post-war card designs:

Card fronts:
1954 Topps
1963 Topps
1971 Topps

Favorite back design:
1954 Topps hands down.
1955 Topps
1965 Topps

I am a '72 Topps fan.

btw, I have PMd the OP about what subjects go in what sections. I know he will be more careful in the future. This front page should generally be pre-wwII or related subjects chat...


I list the 1972 & 1975 baseball,real high on my list, but think the backs of the cards should count to?And 1975 would loose here,for were the card no"s are locacted on the backs!I was born in 1965,so to me that"s {my} winner?Hear me out?1st nice fronts on the cards!2nk nice & easy backs on your eyes!3rd you have Aaron,Clemente,Koufax,Mantle,Mays,Rose & S.Carlton Rookie card in this set + many others?Again 1972 would be a close 2nk, but the backs stats are hard on the eyes?I welcome your sets & ideas.Thanks for your time,ROB.:)

Bowman - 53 and 50

Topps - 71

For backs though, the 57 Topps has a perfect baseball card back.

[MartyFromCANADA]

64' Topps.

[mark evans]

I like several Topps sets:

1954
1955
1957
1960

[Jason Carota]

1958 Hires Root Beer

[spaidly]

1953 Bowman
1957 Topps
1954 Wilson Franks (the colors! the wieners!)
1963 Topps
1971 Topps
1967 Topps

Least favorite: 1953 Topps. I hate the cartoony artwork.

[egri]

1953 Topps
1949 Bowman and Leaf; always liked the "rugged" look of the cards
1957 Topps
1954 Topps
1960 Topps

Honorable mention to 1953 Bowman. If the backs were in the same league as the fronts, it would have made my list.

[bswhiten]

From a pure design standpoint I would argue 65 Topps...

[BosseFieldBoy]

I'fell fess up...I love the 1963 Topps floating heads
