I agree that Topps' most iconic cards were from 1956 or earlier.

I am not a fan of multiplayer cards, so I might go with the 1980 Rickey Henderson Rookie.

I’ll go with another Athletic rookie from approximately a decade earlier. A well-centered 1969 Topps Reggie Jackson rookie card. Unfortunately, most rookies in the 60s and 70s were multiplayer cards. Not Reggie.

Some great mentions above - '71 Munson, '78 Reggie, '80 Rickey, '58 WS Batting Foes. I'll nominate Topps 1976 Johnny Bench:

Some great cards already nominated. I'll add the 1960 Topps Yaz RC.

1967 Topps Tom Seaver RC. High number short print of one of the greatest pitchers of all time.

For images the 1965 Topps Sandy Koufax and Hank Aaron cards can't be beat in my opinion.

I agree with you 100%. From 57-80 Henderson takes the top spot with ease. Number 2 would probably go to Nolan's 68 rookie.

Default I think it’s a
1961 topps dice game Mickey mantle

But if you limit it to base cards: 1962 topps mantle especially in high grade. If just going for coolest card I’d go with the 1957 Dodgers Sluggers. Love that card with a crisp image it’s so awesome.
