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:

Tony, you are right on with regard to the best looking pre-War card.

However, the best looking post-War Mantle card is his 1959 Bazooka card!

One of the most aesthetically under-appreciated cards in the T206 set is the Nap Rucker portrait. He's not famous, but he was one hell of a pitcher. This is one I'd love to upgrade.

Val, you may be right. I always forget that one because it's so rarely seen. Post a scan if you have one!

I wouldn't seriously call this all-time #1 but since we're posting a few longshots... the detail on this is riveting and due to large size really shows up...

Tony, sorry but I don't own a 1959 Bazooka Mantle. This card is on my wish list, but there are many pre-War cards, especially WaJos, ahead of it!
