E121 series of 120
If you go with E121, and as you indicate you are not interested in variations, then stick with the E121 Series of 120. There are three variations that I know of that you can ignore (Whitted - Brooklyn, Rawlings with different positions listed, and Torporcer/Topocer spelling variations), but it is 5000 times more straightfoward than the Series of 80, which has multiple backs, font variations and new cards popping up all the time...see the recent threads on them to get an idea. I believe the total basic set is 124 cards. And they seem to be a little more available than the E121 series of 80.
I prefer the E121 simple design over the E120 tints and overly ornate border framing. The main financial obstacle will be the 3 different Ruth cards that were issued, each with a different photo of the Babe.
