Well, 49-51 seems like Bowman would have to be the choice.

I'd go with Bowman for 49-53 and Topps 54-55.

The 50-52 Bowman sets are the best of the era.

Weird that I can't see the pics. They show up as text lines.

Anyway, 1973 Topps is filled with interesting background stuff. The Tug card looks like it was taken in his back yard with a crutch...

I'm with you on the 78 set, probably the best set in the 70's. The 76 set is close too though.

72 Topps, while I agree it captures the 70's era feel, always reminds me of a theater marquee.

I had to think through this for awhile but ultimately, I still like what I originally liked. Nothing really grew on me. I can see why you hated the 60 set though. :D

58 shouldn't even be part of the discussion. It's a great set, with a "Cracker Jack" feel to it. There are better sets for sure but the 58 is no where near the worst set.

Now, the 68 burlap sack...

Love that set. The quirky photos and comical air brushing are so bad, it's good. The Luis Alvarado is my favorite card from that set.

One of the weakest points of the movie is the score. First Star Wars movie not scored by John Williams and it's very noticeable.

Yeah, way to go Cubs. Tie it up in the 9th and lose it in the 13th.

Should have just lost it in the 9th and I could have gotten two extra hours of sleep. :mad:
