Final Poll!! Vote of the all time worst Topps produced set

[begsu1013]

how 75 isn't on this list just baffles me. i actually like the 79 set...well more like "don't mind the 79 set". not my fav, but d@mn sure wouldn't put it on the worst top 3 and certainly wouldn't have it leading the worst of the worst....

We voted on worst set of the 70s and only 71 got fewer votes than 75. You are in the minority, 75 is considered one of the better sets of the 70s.

So i guess the final tally is in. 1979 wins, or looses, depending how you look at it. I found it interesting that the the best set poll the top vote getter was from the 50's and then went down while the worst went in the opposite direction. I believe overall Topps lost some of its creativity and uniqueness as time went on especially once they became the long standing only game in town. Good thing the shot back up in those departments once some competition came in the 80's

Thanks to all who voted. It was an interesting eye opener in others perceptions to say the least.

Drew- Just out of curiosity are you planning in doing a best/worst poll with the Bowman sets from the 40s and 50s?

+1

We need an overall champ between the two " heavy's ".

I guess I could set up a couple more polls. I think what I will do is have one to vote on the best Bowman and another for the worst Bowman and then pit them again the 56 Topps set for the best all time and the 58 Topps set for the worst of the era.

I don't think it would be a good gauge to do the worst Bowman against the 79 Topps set. Different times and eras. I think keeping it all in the same decade, give or take a couple years, would be a more accurate contest.

What do you guys think?

How about a best/worst from the 1980s?
