Todd, the '63 Fleer is another of my favorites. I almost fished a picture of it off the web, but I'd posted three pics already.
You nailed it. The design is simplicity incarnate; it allows for all the focus on "The Great One" himself.
As far as fantasy cards go, put me down as one that wished Clemente had a '53 Bowman. I can only imagine how gorgeous that card would have been. Why didn't he start baseball just a little earlier?
