Default 1953 or 1954 Topps?

Hey Everybody,

I'm still pretty new to baseball card collecting, but have been collecting other collectable cards on and off for around 30 years. I learned collecting other cards that i don't really care much about commons, so when I got into baseball card collecting I decided to stick with collecting sets of HOF players. I finished with my T205 HOF set, and almost finished my 1934 Goudey HOF Set, and am getting ready to start my next set.

I have decided to pick up some classic players from the 50's and have narrowed it down to either the 1953 Topps of the 1954 Topps HOF set.

1953 Topps:
- I like the art better
- Second set after the famous 1952 (similar trend)
- It includes a Mickey Mantle

1954 Topps:
- I like the signatures on the card
- It includes Hank Aaron (I like him more than Mantle)
- It includes Ted Williams

Which set would you start and why?
