T3 cards are beautiful, and I could easily understand why so many have mentioned to go after this set. But don't rule out the 1933 Goudeys. It has a fantastic selection of the stars and hall of famers of the early 1930's, multiple Ruth and Gehrig cards to satisfy the need for big names, and great artwork as well (on most of the cards). To me they feel more like baseball cards, instead of something that seems more meant for wall display (T3). It was intended to be collected by kids, which is more at the root of how we all entered the hobby. And beside the big names, the cards are currently at a decent low price level and are bound to more than retain their value.
Still, you can't go wrong with T3. I don't think anyone has ever called them ugly.
