Anyone currently working on hockey sets?

Pre-War: I'm half-seriously working on 1923 Paulin's Candy, and more seriously trying to complete C60 Lacrosse (I know, not hockey, but close enough...)

Vintage: I've been putting together a raw set of '74-'75 WHA, looking for a few cards still and looking to upgrade some...so many of these cards are in terrible shape with brutal centering.

Let us know what you are working on!

Cheers,
Blair

Blair,
We are very similar in our collecting interests. I just finished my Paulins Chocolate set after working on it for about 4 years. Needed #44 Ty Arbour for completion and looked for one for about 6 months before i finally found one. I am also working on the C60 set and still need 4 to complete it. I am currently trying to put together a Holland Creameries set, i still need 4 more (without the SP Neil) for completion.

Finshed my 1963-64 Parkhurst set last year, thinking about up-grading a few. Here's a link to my set

Hi Mike,

That is quite a coincidence! Congats on finishing the Paulins - that is a feat. I'm only at about 10 cards so far, but I have a couple key ones (Lalonde and Hainsworth) and my commons are all between PSA 3 and 5 (none hole-punched).

For C60, I'm real happy with my set so far, but I still need about 15 cards. My set is #2 on the PSA Registry (I'll never touch the #1 "simjin" - Simon Bourque - PSA set, but it will be tough for someone to knock me out of 2nd, I think...)

Good luck to you on Holland Creameries - another serious challenge!

Cheers,
Blair

Hi Jeff,

This is my favorite post-1951 hockey set. The Howe is an icon! Congrats on putting together a beauty.

Cheers,
Blair
