495-Carlton Fisk (NOT Diamond King)

1979 SIGNED TOPPS WANTS
336-Bobby Thompson (Rangers)

1978 SIGNED WANTS
586-Ed Goodson

1977 SIGNED WANTS
170-Thurman Munson

I may have the Fisk that I would just give you for free. I'll check but I'm assuming I may have traded it a while ago.

Never had someone offer to give me something of value free before, but I have only been in hobby 40 years. :)

Would appreciate help regardless, just would want to give you something of similar value at the very least. Thanks!

That is absolutely incredible that you are really that close to these 4 sets. As a longtime collector, I know the virtual impossibility to actually have a 100% authentic set so I applaud you. This caught my eye as I just picked up about 40 signed cards bball and football but all from the 1960s. Good luck and I'll keep my eyes open, take care, Mike

I am down to 80 1957s to complete my set. Most commons except for Campanella, Clemente and Ken Boyer

Working on signed 52t, at this point I've had or graded for others 287/407 unique signed cards, and five different errors or variations. I can't imagine a set of 660+ cards

Well, the cards mean more to you than me so might as well go to a collection where it'll be cherished.

Looked around and unfortunately I couldn't find the Fisk :( I'll ask around also.

Good luck, quite an amazing feat. I've never come close to a signed set.

I'm 1 away from a signed 78T set as well…a team set of the Dodgers! Any guesses who I am missing too?

Have you thought about sending Goodson a $50 check with his card?

I have always wanted to start doing some serious TTM, but have never pulled the trigger. I don't know if I would be willing to spend that much for Goodson, regardless of its scarcity. I have a couple of his other signed cards, assume they are legit, just not his 78. That was my first year of collecting and the set holds a special place in my heart.

I marvel at why some of these guys are just so anti autograph.

I'm curious: have you ever come across a signed Vern Bickford or Howie Fox? I'm in the process of putting together a signed 1953 Topps set, and I think those two will be my white whales (putting Captain Ahab to shame here).

Yes, I've seen both.


Very tough
