I’m going with Mark on anything past 1971. But in particular anything past 1975.
I think its pretty crazy 58 is a disliked set based on headshots, I guess people don’t like color. 1953 topps is THE headshot set. So it should be widely disliked as well, and if I remember correctly from a thread several years ago, it was many peoples least favorite set from the 50s. Which I probably agree with, not because of the headshots, because I don’t like the art style.

1969 is bad because of too many hatless players and reused photos. However, there are plenty of nice cards in the low series, Bench, Banks, Brock, Clemente, Gibson, Kaline & F. Robinson. The last 3 series we get the 1969 spring training photos and players in uniform for the 4 expansion teams. I dislike 1953 more because of too many headshots and the poor artwork. The Whitey Ford may be the worst. I know this will be a minority opinion, but I dislike the photos for 1952 Topps even more than 1958 and 1969. Again too many headshots and the colorizing of the black and white photos has always looked weird to me.

I mean, is there a worse card for a hall of famer than that Reggie?? People with no experience in my sophomore year of high school photo journalism class shot better action shots of gym class.

What adds to the utter horror of the 1973 Topps Reggie photo is that's his MVP year!!!
Thus, the card naturally gets featured so much more often than any of his other non-rookie cards!!!! You simply can't avoid the squished face craziness!!!!!!!!

68-69 were the worst. The one thing about the 73's are the action shots were similar to 71 and 72. It was the technology of the day.

So overall I would say 1969 was the laziest effort Topps put out.
