Honorable mentions to '56 (artful) and '71.
Believe it or not, I find the 74s the most aesthetically pleasing of the 1970s cards. I like how the border colors are made to coordinate with the uniforms of the teams represented. Very nice. The downside, of course, is the lack of rookies and high dollar cards in the set. That doesn't matter to me, but I understand that it does for most.
I used to consider my taste for the '75s a guilty pleasure, until I discovered (to my shock) that lots of people love the set. Maybe its the rookie selection?
I should add that 1974 was the year I started collecting, so '74 and '75 have that advantage, as well.
It's interesting to see the variety on here. I think '65 may have been mentioned the most?
