I would say the Whitney/Dog and the Ewing/Mascot are the two most popular cards. If the Williamson/Mascot was easier to find, I'd think it would be popular too.
The St Louis Browns subset seems to have lost a lot of popularity as the prices aren't that high anymore and they are much easier to find that the Spotted Tie set. I think team and subset popularity runs in cycles and if you have enough people collecting them, the prices jump. I like the two player cards, but so many of them seem impossible to find. I voted the HOFers as the most popular subset because many people only collect those, ones that aren't Old Judge collectors. Two more cards that could be considered very popular are Dummy Hoy and Billy Sunday. People who have no interest in baseball might know who they are. I had a friend who went to RIT school for the deaf and she told me about Dummy Hoy, who was part of the lesson for her class that day. She couldn't believe I had his baseball card.

My two favorites of the Old Judge set are the previously listed Old Hoss Radbourn obscene gesture and Ed Delahanty catch, hands at waist. That Delahanty pose is one of my favorites in the hobby, because of the seemingly mystical quality of the image.
