You were doing real well Bob until the 1959 nonsense. Wait until Don catches up with you in Chicago.
I am a fan of 1991. How many cards would it take to have a master 1991 Topps set, including the Desert Shield cards ? The 1969 Supers are indeed super. My 2nd favorite Topps set

Overrated - 1952 Topps. Bad artwork that is hopelessly lost somewhere between the worlds of photo and illustration so is really neither. Horrendous production quality, even for the day. Rides high primarily on strength of a single overrated card of an overrated player.
Underrated - No nominee here Favorite - 1967 Topps. I love the clean design, quality of the photos, star and rookie selection, and even the challenging high numbers. Least favorite - 3-way tie between Topps 1958 (just plain boring and ugly) & 1960 (someone with no notion of typography ate a box of crayons then vomited them up as this baseball card design (sorry 1960 lovers!)) and any Heritage-type or reprint set (the ultimate lazy design copout. Nothing more incongruous, uncreative, and unsurprising than placing modern photos on retread designs from a completely different era)

I'll stick in the 50s as that is my favorite card decade
Overrated - 1952 Topps. Underrated - 1954 Johnston Cookies Aaron. Couldn't think of one set, so I named a card Least favorite - 1958/1959 Topps .... toss up. Both equally boring Favorite - 1952 Bowman and 1957 Topps toss up. I do think that the 57 Snider is one of the best cards ever made 1957 duke.jpg
