My favourites have to be the NL collections, Pop Lloyd in particular. The mixture of design, colour scheme and batting stance is amazing, and is one card I'm probably never going to sell.
It may seem a small detail, but I also love that there are different types and effects used on the background/border grey of certain era cards (e.g. 1970s, 1900/10s). Makes a lovely visual difference to the cards that may not be immediately obvious.
Keeping in mind how amazing the card art is in general, there are a couple cards which come to mind when thinking of ones I liked less than average. For some 1950's cards, a dark stadium background is used, which works ok for bright logos, but dark logos seem to get a bit lost in this background (for example FotF Campanella & FotF Spahn). It would be lovely in these cases if these logos could be highlighted a bit better imo.
Thanks for all the excellent work, really excited for what next year brings!
