I'll weigh in with my opinion. Personally I love both sets. My preference is for the 1956. I really like cards that are horizontal. I'm currently working on a HOF set from 1956 and am loving it. However I will also be working on a 1957 HOF set when j get done with the 56s.
Let me give you another way of looking at which set to chose:
If you are actually looking to collect (I don't know if you do or are going to start) and the 56s are you favorite then take the 57s and then build your own 1956 set. If you enjoy the thrill of collecting this could be an option as you get both sets eventually and you get to build the set you have admitted to liking more.
Just my .02
