I love the 1961 set! Clean, photo-dominated design, tons of subsets, the first league leader cards, the World Series cards commemorating the victory of my beloved Pirates, the coolest All Star cards (so great they copied them in 1970), those cornball multi-player cards ("Power for Ernie"). I agree that Mays, Banks, Killebrew and some of the other hatless head shots are pretty bad, but I think the Clemente and Aaron cards are among their best. The high numbers are pretty tough -- which made completing that set all the more satisfying. I think that was the peak Mantle set -- he appeared on six different different cards, if memory serves.
