There is certainly an aesthetic appreciation for the cards and the composition of the images. I think the photo/gold leaf combo of the T204 Ramly's are amazing, T205's are much fancier than the T206's (though I like the t206's more), Diamond Stars are the best "Art Nouveau" Card hands down, and I think the 1949 Leaf cards are an amazing nod to contemporary Pop art that was emerging at that time, though I am convinced the guys who were on press were drunk most of the time. 1965 Topps is the embodiment of a baseball card in my book, followed by the 1956 Topps. Everything after 1986 is tough to look at, the dawn of the glossy gold stamped crap.
