Not sure if these are 'staples', but they are my favorite sets because of the design of the cards and the players who appear in them. I might pick more sets from pre-WWI if I was more familiar with them. I would definitely not pick anything issued after 1969. In chronological order, they are:

T206 White Border
T3 Turkey Red
1914 Cracker Jack
1915 Cracker Jack
1933 Goudey
1934 Goudey
1934-36 Diamond Stars
1951 Bowman
1952 Bowman
1952 Topps
1953 Bowman Color
1953 Topps
1956 Topps
1963 Topps
1965 Topps
1966 Topps
1967 Topps
1969 Topps
