An article was posted today on the MLB site on the "coolest" Topps cards from each year. Here's the link:

What do you all think about the choices? I thought some were inspired, like the 1957 Kluszewski and 1975 Oscar Gamble, while others were either obvious (1954 Aaron), overrated (1952 Mantle) or just plain dumb (1972 Fred Gladding). I didn't bother reading about anything past 1976, but I'm sure others will.
As for the "coolest" cards not on the list, I would add the 1952 Topps Gus Zernial (which edges out Larry Jansen and Johnny Mize), the 1954 Topps O'Brien brothers and the 1957 Dodgers Sluggers. I also would have replaced the 1951 game card with one of the Connie Mack or current All Stars (I like the Doby best).
I enjoyed the article, and I'd like to see this done for every non-Topps set.
