53 Bowman, may be the nicest set of all time.
I gotta say though, the 52 Bowmans are nice also.

From memory, I like them all. But agreed, the '53 set might be the best post-war set I've ever seen. It's just gorgeous.

55 Bowman is, in my opinion, the most underappreciated set of all time and has the most underappreciated Mantle card ever.

I have completed all these sets except the 49 which I am about 80% done. I really like most of them, for different reasons, and had trouble voting for just one. I chose 49 because it didn't seem to get much love. I like the set for the relatively huge (1/3 of the set) high number run, the number of fantastic rookie cards (Jackie, Satchell, Duke, etc.), the quasi-primitive nature of the artwork, and the interesting set of variations. Its hard to argue with 53, 55 or 52 though.
