Another vote for 1972 Topps
Over the top, gaudy, arch-design as if the emphasis is on the background rather than the actual photo. And then the posed shots of players wearing their warm-up jackets (Tom Seaver, Ron Santo...), the not so active "In Action" shots (Hank Aaron casually jogging the bases), the Boyhood Photos, and the flat out bizarre Award cards.
But I still like the set.
