I haven't completed many sets, and only one older than 74.
The 48 Bowmans were fun, small set, and at the time possible on a tight budget if you didn't care at all about condition. (The Musial I had cost .50 with paper loss, and the Berra had been partly colorized nice yellow uniform!)
I sold it to fund some of a ski trip, and sort of wish I hadn't.
74 was fun to finally finish. I collected it when new, got close during the 80's, and finally bought the last one I needed around 1994 or so.
the 82s were pretty dull, since I just ordered them from a dealer when they came out.
I actually had fun putting together the first series of 2011 Topps.
