I've never met a pre-1980 set I didn't like so I can't really empathize, but if you don't like the 1958s and you love the 1957s it seems your path is clear: ignore the first and concentrate on the second.
If it were me I would actively seek out '57s but keep an eye out for bargains in the '58s. In addition to this site's BST and eBay there are many Facebook groups that buy, sell and trade cards from the '50s.
