What is the most condition sensitive set of cards?
early Cuban issues and many minor league sets like Zeenuts,
major set would be the T205 cards Jimmy

just because
Another would be E271 Darby Chocolates. The only major find of these was about 50 of the (60-75?) singles known, not counting the half a dozen or so full boxes. They were found in a barn, tacked to the walls, if I remember correctly. (or had been tacked to the walls at one time) This is about their average condition

Fred beat me to it, but I would second T222s. That thin photographic paper stock creases if you look at it the wrong way, to say nothing of breaking off at the corners.

Like T205, the colored-border cards like T210 and T211 show even the slightest nicks to border a million times more than a T206 or caramel card with white borders.
T209 B&Ws have a bad flaking problem: I've not seen another issue that flakes like those. But above all, someone's gotta mention the George Millers (R300s). If you want to talk about distribution affecting a card, those hole-punched cancellations are killer.

I don't know why, but among mainstream E sets, E98s are remarkably tough in mid-high grade. There seems to be a very high percentage of them with paper loss on the back.
JimB P.S. E105s are extremely tough! Many have heavy folds down the middle. Last edited by E93; 02-19-2010 at 09:47 PM.
