We think alike, Jason.
When I did a correction of Hank Aaron's '57 Topps card a few weeks ago (flipping the picture so he was no longer a right handed hitter batting lefty), I saved a variation with no typography on the front. I thought the end result was just stunning-eerily similar to the '53 Bowman Color set.
 
Oh, how I would love it if Topps were to release a '57 Topps reprint with no type on the front. It would be gorgeous. Maybe then, too, they could clue us all on on who the heck was taken out of the Mickey Mantle picture.
