Default Which iconic set had the best sequel?

T206, 1933 Goudey, and 1952 Topps are the undisputed kings of the hobby, but by coincidence (I think) all three were followed by sets that are iconic in their own right.

Which sequel set is your favorite: T205, 1934 Goudey, or 1953 Topps, and why?

Of the three mentioned, I really like the design of the 1953 set. Stars galore and harder SPs and high numbers. Exactly what a set should be

Since T205 is better than T206 that is clearly the answer!

This is a prewar forum with lots of guys who love the old stuff, so I expect T205 will win by a significant margin. Although, objectively, I think you could make a solid argument for 1953 Topps.

I also think 1915 CJ (the fake 1914s) and 49 Bowman could be in the mix (I think every bowman through 1952 is an awesome sequel)

Leon, the Cobb is awesome!

I'm surprised how popular this opinion is. I prefer T206s all day! I voted '53 Topps - not quite as great as '52 IMO but very nice.

Same here. I honestly dont even really like the t205 set at all. idk why it just doesnt do it for me, prefer the t206s way more. I also voted 53 topps cause im a 50s topps and bowman set builder at heart.
