53T Satchell Paige for sure. That one is the Mona Lisa of baseball cards.

The painted 1953 action shots only in the last two series. Cal Hogue stands out for me.
I don't think aesthetic value has anything to do with a favored superstar being on it, not all the best looking, or even most of them, just happen to be the ~30 biggest names.

best looking Topps card?
Cool topic! I'll go with these 3, although there many possibilities:
1) 57 Roberto Clemente- perfect card 2) 57 Ted Klu- captures him to a "t" "when it was a game" 3) 64 Topps Hank Aaron- pure class Trent King

Most attractive card
Back when I was opening wax packs, I loved seeing this Clemente card. Then a few years later, action shots such as these, appealed to me.

And some of the 1957 Topps, though I wish the photographer had asked Ted Williams to step into the sunlight.[/QUOTE]
...and the Mantle, Mays, and Aaron cards are all dark and drab as well. I always thought the Duke Snider card from the '57 set was as nice a card as Topps ever produced. Vibrant color. No obstructing card design (i.e. 1959 Topps)... just Ebbetts Field and the Duke. Fairly reasonably priced also.

Agree the 57 Snider is a beautiful card.
I have always appreciated the Mick card as well. It has a certain mystique. The Bobby Richardson RC is also quite divine with the courthouse and setting sun in the background. Last edited by Kutcher55; 11-10-2021 at 08:52 AM.

I just recently picked up the 1957 Topps Bobby Richardson from a board member.

And the best thing about the 1956 Aaron is you get Willie Mays too.
