I like the Bob O'Farrell with the sort of Art Deco looking background. I'm also partial to the full body images on Goudeys.

Another vote for Paul Richards. When I was a kid he managed the Orioles and I believe he wore a suit while doing so. Didn't look to me like he belonged around ballplayers - I was nine years old, what did I know? - so decades later when I acquired his Goudey card I saw him in a whole new light. Picking up his Worch card made it better yet.

A previous David posting of his Worch card was when I was introduced to the photo that was used by the Goudey artist to create the card. Thanks David!

In my opinion, one of the ugliest cards in the set (if it counts).

Ahh, it's not so bad. I put together the '33 Goudeys about twenty years ago. Couldn't abide an empty puka in the binder - two thirty-nine out of two forty wasn't gonna cut it - so I ponied up for this bit of roadkill. No regrets.

My 1933 Goudey preference is also full body poses, followed by the 'half-bodied' cards like the Guy Bush shown. The O'Farrell card Andy showed should have made my list...dang it!
My least favorite are the cards with heavy outlining surrounding the player's image. In my mind they almost seem to belong to a different set.
