I realize it is a cabinet, but as far as looks the Turkey Reds are in a class by themselves. The absolute cream of the crop in my humble opinion.

They aren't scanogenic - if you ever see one in person that has a minty surface, you'll be amazed. I've owned two of the Speakers and still think it's the most beautiful card ever created. I got a few of the EX to EXMT ones from a set break 10-12 years ago, and they were all amazing. The dull-surface abused ones aren't near so great.

To me, T3s all the way. And within that, I love the Cobb--probably the most visually pleasing of any card I own (at least to me).

Tough to beat some of the classic Cobbs.

I want to cast my vote with the majority view that the T3 set contains the best looking cards ever made.
And the Speaker is the best of all. But since Scott already posted Speaker, I'll settle for posting my favorite non-T3 card:

Agreed, I typically could care less about condition but with T3's it does make a big difference and they really do look even better in person.

This image was used on several Wheat cards. I always thought it was a great picture.

I couldn't agree more.
