72's are groovy! I always assumed the boys who created the '72 set were Deadheads at heart.

For me, I hated the '71 set. Black, ugly, with only one year's stats on the back. And, honestly, I still hate 'em overall, but if they're centered and the corners aren't worn, some of 'em are ok. The Ryan and Munson cards aren't bad.

This is an old thread, but I see a lot of renewed discussions of Topps sets from the 70's, so maybe it's time to revive it...

Has a set grown on you over time?

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

1962 Topps, at first wasn't sure about the "woodies", but now I really dig em :-) 1973 Topps, some really nice action shots that I didn't appreciate at first.

Baseball-wise, so many have grown...others have fizzled...
The '62 Topps, '55 Bowman, '55 Topps, '60 Topps have grown on me quite a bit over the years.
Among the fizzlers would be '53 Topps. I built this set twice, so it may just be over loved? I used to be nuts for late 70's stuff...that kinda fizzled, too.
The rest of the sets I've always disliked remain disliked
