1933 DeLong
Sure, no Ruth (or Hornsby/Speaker/Dean/Ott for that matter), but this tiny set is still loaded. And the color! Wow. Just a gorgeous design top to bottom. It will never get a fraction of the love Goudey commands, but this one gets my vote for sure. https://www.psacard.com/articles/art...by-trailblazer

That is really great and tough collection.
For me it is a toss up between the 1914 CJ series the colors and images are great and a ton of great players And 1916 m101-4/5 Cards. Loaded with Great Players, loaded with photo action poses, and for me the best part is all the different and interesting Adv backs. In the end I would probably choose the 1916 set because of the Ad backs

I can't even imagine a set any more gorgeous or historically significant than that. And the album, too, just adds to it.

My second favorite pre-war cards after the stunning Goodwin Champions and the album to keep them in would be the t205 set. The artwork is beautiful, and you still get the advertisements but, more importantly to me, you now also get facts and figures about the players. This is from a little album I have of various pre-war tobacco cards, ball players (mainly t205s, but some others too, Buchner, n28, OJ, and t207) and railway steam locomotives.

T206. Reasons are self-evident:
   Honorable mention, 1933 Goudey. It has a lot of cards I think are too cartoon-y but also a lot of beautiful cards:  Honorable mention, Exhibit PC Backs:
