Good post, 53B color is the first set to use photographic images, they also used Kodachrome film which was super expensive back then, but that's the reason the images look so captivating. It's also the reason they cut the set in half and went B&W the following year.
I'm always curious about the artists that rendered the images before 53, to me the 51B Mays is high art and I'd love to know who painted it.
