Backs are overrated.

I go for neither -- beauty of the card (including image, color and centering) most important. Could be, say, Lajoie with bat--or Bob Bescher portrait.

While I appreciate the high grade stuff, I like my vintage to look vintage (prefer good to very good) so I'll take the rare back for the variety of it.

To each his own, but I vote for rare back just because they are much more difficult to obtain. It's all about the chase...

The way I see it, the more money I spend on an Uzit of a common player, the less I have to spend on a Cobb or a Wagner. Those are the cards I really want to own.

When you show off your collection, it's more impressive to have a HOF card everyone recognizes, than to show the reverse of a card with an Uzit advertisement no one recognizes but the most hardcore of collectors.
