If I had to pick just one, I’d select the 1953 Topps set. I love art-based cards, and the Paige and Mays cards are probably my two favorite Topps cards. Only drawback to me is the facsimile auto on back makes some of the text hard to read. 1957 is my favorite in the now-standard size, and 56 is fantastic
By decade:
60’s - 1966 Topps, with 67 a close runner up. 67 and 68 has my favorite back design of all Topps issues.
70’s - 1971, those black borders are great. The vibrant yellow backs on the O-Pee-Chees I like more than the Topps ones.
80’s - 1987, wood grain perfection.
90’s - pretty weak decade for me. Nothing terrible, but none stand out. Guess I have a soft spot for those ugly bright 1990 borders
00’s - 2000 Topps, love the silver borders. Actually liked 2001’s 50th anniversary set a lot too.
10’s - probably 2010. Very similar year to year for quite awhile now, but pretty solid every season
