Topps--I would go with either 1966 or 1967. The 1961s are a close third--but not nearly as many SPs as there are in 66 and 67.

1st, they can all be had for a price. But looking at the 61 set, the highs can be had, but how attractive is that set to the collector. I got through series 1-6 pretty easily until I hit the allstar cards at the end. Had to be very patient. I have always Thought on the whole that 66 was tougher. But saying that selected 67's are tougher than the 66's. The 11 very SP cards in 67 (seaver rc, redsox team, #587, colavito etc) are tougher than 66's.
If all the 11 or so very tough 66 sp's were produced in equal numbers, why is #591 so expensive? My thought is that like the '64 flood #103, somebodies hoarding these.
