Howdy, Alaskanmade. I read your OP a couple times and feel you would be best to go with the 1954 Topps HOF set. You point out that you prefer Hank Aaron over Mickey Mantle, and you like Ted Williams. As you know, the '54 Topps has 2 gorgeous Ted Williams cards.

Further, the plethora of colors adds much to the appealing design of the 1954s, giving them a nice variety in presentation. As you stated, you like the signatures on the cards. The addition of the small black 'n white photo accompanying the color shot is usually well-done. All in all, I think 1954 Topps is YOUR best fit, bro.

Now, should there be a 1953 that says, "man, I wish I owned that", fine, buy it and enjoy it. It's not as if you're collecting the set, so a type card or two is a happy place.

Wishing you the very best, and a peaceful, satisfied choice in your decision. Have a grand time, bro.

Either set would be great to have of HOF'ers. The 1953 Topps Set contains 23 HOF'ers and the 1954 Topps Set has 22 HOF'ers, but 4 are RC's. Good Luck and have fun putting it together.
