There are just so many great action shots, 1971 has to be at least top 10. After years of head shots and poses, we got these



It was an absolute game changer for future Topps sets.

1954 Topps Baseball: How could anyone not like these cards, great design
1955 Bowman Baseball: Just something about the TV set design
1961 Topps Baseball: I really like the All-Star cards in the set
1970 Topps Baseball: I think it's because I bought a lot that summer as a kid
1969 Topps Football: The colorful borderless design

1952 Topps Baseball
1957 Topps Baseball
1967 Topps Baseball
1969 Topps Baseball

My theme here is no clutter just player.
1971 Topps Baseball is in there too.

I also like the 1976 SSPC Set.

Pure cards, no clutter.

I think this may be the first time in the history of the interweb that someone has declared their love for the 1970 Topps set. At least by placing it in a 'Top 5' list.

Hey, we all need some love.

1971 Vada Pinson (plus Munson in the background) is such a great action shot
