I always liked the '55 Topps, and still enjoy owning one in rough shape that I purchased for a couple of dollars back when I was a teenager. It was so cool to get a Jackie Robinson card and I felt fortunate to be able to afford one, even if the condition made it much less desirable to others. Have to say that I also like that '52 Topps above in this thread.

This thread is a good example of the subjectivity of the hobby, one of its attractions in my view.

1953 Topps

I lot of the mid 50's cards looks like Jackie with the exact same pose (just different background). That being said, if you can afford, you really need to pick up a nice 1948 Leaf.

This scan is of the reprint, but you get the gist...

I like the '47 Bond Bread portrait! '52 Topps is a close second. I'm certainly partial to portrait cards. Anything horizontal ('55 and '56 Topps, for instance) are just plain ugly, in my opinion.

1956 Topps, then 1950 Bowman, then 1955 topps. He actually has a lot of cool cards.

These are far from his best looking cards, but they are his toughest Topps "cards" to get....55 and 56 Topps Hocus Focus . I recently won a REA lot that has a better 55 ( smaller of the two)

52 Topps, 54 Topps, 49 Bowman, 50 Bowman

I could go on and on, almost all the old Jackie cards are really nice.

1953 Topps is really great. I also like the 1952 Berk Ross and any of the Bond Bread.

IMO, as for Topps and Bowman, the only card I do like of Jackie is the '50 Bowman. It's probably because I am partial to action shots, but I just find most of the others ugly. The aforementioned issues like Bond Bread and Berk Ross are much better than Topps and Bowman.
