I voted none of the above. They are all great cards but I consider aesthetics more than anything else. That disqualifies the Bowman, 1957 Topps and 1961 Fleer cards. The 1980 trio is a significant card but an uggo. The Jordan, frankly, has graphics that overwhelm a dark picture. I hate shiny cards, so no on the Kobe.

I choose the 1969-70 Topps Wilt Chamberlain. To me that's what a basketball card should look like. Tall, large color photo of an alltime great player, great clean graphics that complement rather than interfere with the image. I chose Wilt over Lew because the color scheme on Lew's card is not as bold and interesting as the Wilt card.
