I always enjoyed the new trophy cards as a kid. Most of them are pretty plain in this set though, but the Bench is a slight winner for best trophy card over my pick below and a Bobby Cox RC. Koosman is a decent card too. Since the 69 set has very few shots outside of close up portraits, it becomes harder to narrow down a favorite from a sea of boring.
3 that come to my mind are:
Pete Rose
Willie Davis
Bobby Bonds
I also always really liked the Drysdale card for some reason, perhaps because it was his last.
I also like the NL (Dodger) rookie stars card that has Darwin, Miller and Dean. Darwin and Miller in their only Dodger card appearances and Dean as a Padre, but obviously an airbrushed Dodger shot.
