I would consider any of the 1964 Beatles sets iconic. But then, I'm a Beatles fanatic

1953 Topps World on Wheels?
-------------------------------
I'm going to reevaluate how I collect after the new year. It's just getting way too expensive for the new stuff. Sometimes I just want to buy a pack, not a whole box or even blaster.

I would add 1942 Gum Inc. War Gum, 1954 Topps Scoop, 1953-54 Topps World on Wheels, 1952 Topps Wings and 1955 Topps Rails & Sails. Based on your listed sets it seems you favor vintage mostly. I have some other sets I consider essential due to the time I grew up and that would be 1991 Topps Desert Storm, 1990 Marvel Universe, 1994 Marvel Universe, 1991 Impel DC Comics and 1991 Impel GI Joe.

VERY slow trading due to health problems. Not transferrable so safe to trade with, just moving is painful and can't always access the cards.

As an elementary schooler in the late 70's, the 1977 Topps Charlie's Angels and the 1978 Donruss KISS sets were big hits with me and my friends.
