+1. As a kid, the first set I collected was 1955 Topps, but the first set I went after with great gusto was the 1956 Topps - I really liked this set. In the late 1980's, I resurrected my childhood collection that Mom, bless her, didn't toss out. I learned of a card show and went to see what it was all about, and I discovered that baseball cards existed long before WWII. Before long, I was hooked on pre-War cards almost exclusively. I encourage you to give a pre-War set a try, but be careful, you too might get hooked!
