It came down to 1958 or 1959 for me, and in the end 1959 "won" out. The 58 backgrounds are kind of dull, but at least there's some variety in the pictures. With the 59s it's "have a head shot...and another head shot...and another..." And I'm not big on facsimile signatures; it doesn't look good once the card gets signed.

I've also never really warmed up to the 1952 set. Like one of the above posters mentioned, I understand the significance of that set to the hobby, but IMHO I just don't think the artwork was generally that great. There are a few where I have difficulty telling the players apart, and I'm not crazy about how some were horizontal and others vertical.
