Default 1957 All the Way

First time posting, hope I did this right. '57 has it all but then again I'm biased, that one was my first vintage set collected so naturally I have an affinity towards it. That said, it is a great set for these reasons:

1) Very strong HOF RC class (B. & F. Robinson, Kubek, Richardson, Maz, Bunning, Colavito)
2) Beautiful, clean photography of actual players (better than artistic portraits IMO)
3) Nice combo cards: Mantle & Yogi, Campy/Snider...
4) Standard Size that fit into "normal" sized sheets!

That's my take, '59 is a nice one and is much more affordable...
