Mine go something like this:
50's - 1955
60's- 1962
70's - 1973
80's - 1982
90's - No opinion
00's - 2006 (It is the only one that I have from the 2000's)
Overall my favorite Topps design of all time is the 1955. Special issue would be the Heritage series.

My daughter was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at the age of 2 (2003). My son was diagnosed with Type 1 when he was 17 on December 31, 2009. We were stunned that another child of ours had been diagnosed. Please, if you don't have a favorite charity, consider giving to the JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation)

1950's - 1959 - The bright colors really capture the feel of the era. My favorite star photo in the set is Al Kaline. Great picutre of him swinging his bat.
1960's - 1963 - I like the bright colors and two photos on each card. My favorite star photo from the set is Koufax.
1970's - 1976 - Nice blend of colors while still maintaining white borders. My favorite card is the George Brett. Not a great action shot, but a nice photo.
1980's - 1983 - I like the 1984 cards better, but some of the photos look faded (Joe Morgan, Rickey Henderson etc.). My favorite star card photo is Paul Molitor. I love the old Brewers helmets.
1990's - 1997 - Nice colors and great photography. My favorite star photo is Derek Jeter.
2000's - 2001 - The 50th Anniversary cards are nice. I would put 2003 as a close second. My favorite photo in 2001 is Mark McGWIRE.
I thought I would add something different by picking my favorite card in each set. I didn't include commons because I have not seen them all for the older sets.

<< <i>So far the 90's are not doing very well. >>
That's because all the "smart" people on here collect vintage........
they are far too wise and intelligent to condescend to collect anything from the 90's.......
60's - 1963 ('67 is a close second)
70's - 1975
80's - 1983 (expanding it to other companies, I'd take '84 Donruss)
90's and beyond - Burn them all.
Stay classy,

1959 -- clean, interesting design
1960 -- really like how the names were multi color, again very interesting design
1972 -- very 70's to me, love the 3d affect
1980 -- simple, love how the little pennants frame the card. also like how the border is diff colors for diff teams

you should start a thread what are the worst designs by decade
60's-1968 (what's the deal with the big dots on the first series and small dots on the rest of the cards?)
70's-1974
80's-1987- i am not a fan of the wood paneling. although i may get slammed by a lot of 1987 fans
thanks
