Although I started collecting baseball cards with buying a few packs of 1975 Topps at age 8, the 1977 set was the first set I put together from packs and continued the trend through 1978, yet the 1976 set is my favorite due to the crisp front design (especially the illustration graphics of the positions), followed by the clean 1974 set.
I finally put the 1976 set together in 1981 or so from local card shows (wow, are those even around anymore?), followed by the 1974 set finished in 1983. One of my favorite "goofy" cards of the 1976 set is the Bazooka bubblegum card champion Kurt Bevacqua, with the brackets on the back. I sold my less-than-complete 1975 cards a few years back (had just under 500 cards including Brett and Yount), but now I'm itching to try to put the set together again.....

I love the '71's even with the maddening borders and centering with high numbers. I had a great sense of accomplishment when I completed the set in approximately Ex/Mt well centered. Actually this set still has me as I continue to look to upgrade cards.
After that it's 1975 (first year I collected) and 1972.

I think the '71 set is one of the best sets of the 70's. Personally, I don't like the '75 set that much, the colors are just too distracting and the photos not that great. In order:
1. 1978 2. 1977 3. 1971 4. 1976 5. 1973 6. 1972 7. 1974 8. 1979 9. 1970 10. 1975 BTW, I grew up in the 70's, and the '77 set was the first one I collected.

For the 70's.
My rankings: 1975---love the colors. My first set as a kid and still one of my favorites. 1976- not a great rookie selection but a great design and photography 1971--first time out doing action shots and really think it's some of their best. 1970-- 1974 1972 1978 1973--if the paper quality was better I think this set could've been much nicer. 1977 1979
