You can view them all if you have the time, but in my experience the search functionality on the Met's website is horrible. Good luck if you are searching for something specific. Ostensibly because even in that department the Met people are not hobby people per se, they list the sets differently than people here would. For example, 1953 Topps is referred to as the "1953 Dugout Quiz" series due to the cartoons on the back. This kind of thing makes a Google-type search difficult. And even just paging through the entirety of the collection - things are not necessarily in order if you just continually use the "next page" functionality. They go from Topps cards to 19th century actor and actress cards, then back to baseball, etc. etc.
