1956 Topps Eye Appeal Opinions Requested
Hi All,
I just picked up a few potential upgrades to my 1956 Topps set and I am having trouble deciding between the new ones and my old ones in terms of eye appeal. I have put quality scans in below and I would love to hear opinions from folks on this board regarding the relative eye appeal. Thanks! 1.

Those are all super nice and really tough to tell but I like the new Killebrew and Mathews better and the old Snider better.

The old Killebrew has a slight diamond cut, but I like the skin tones on that one and the old Duke over the newer ones. Jump ball on the Matthews.

Nice 56s. Such a great set.
I’d say old Killebrew, new for the other two. Good luck deciding.

New, new, old. But whatever you decide, if you want to sell your doubles let me know, I'm collecting 56 too.
Thanks.

I like all the new ones better. Killebrew is a close call because the corners look sharper on the old one. I definitely prefer the new Snider; Duke's face is a little blurry on the old one.
All nice cards either way. How many of your 56s are graded? Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk
