For me, '71 is a nightmare due to its black borders, and anything beyond 1973 belongs in a separate category because of its lack of series distribution, so I am happily hitting the '72 button...

Agree with Jolly, the 71 set just looks crummy unless in really nice shape, then you have to worry about if the card was "doctored" with a black pen, etc... Overall some really nice sets from this decade. 1970 has some great backs, easy to read and very colorful, cartoon, etc. 1972 is a huge set, but a classic that has a colorful and unique look. I don't love the darker backs that are found on the 71, 74, 76, & 79 sets. Harder to read. Finally, I know it's dopy, but I fell that 74 and 79 are missing something without the rookie all star trophy cards. When I was in like sixth grade, I thought those were the coolest cards in the world. I think I traded a Mattingly Rookie for the 1966 Tony Perez and I was happy for like 7 weeks.

1975 is the easy choice for me. Those color combos are so disco, you've got a great selection of Hall of Famers, two trophy bucks and even a couple other "minor" RCs.
These things just scream 70s in every way.
