The small window is way more classic looking, no doubt. And it looks OK on the fleetsides, but can be especially tiny looking on longbeds.
As for actual blindspots, I can't say I have too much trouble. Sure, I have to crane my neck a little extra way, but pickup trucks are already easy to see out because there's just a bed on the back.
Also, I have the factory side mirrors and they're a lot more convenient than those small, top-mount mirrors you see. GOing into the the right lane is no big deal, it's only going into the left lane that I have to move my head back to see through the rear window. And this is coming from a guy who drives his 1967 truck everyday, and is often found in the fast lane
