I've always loved 1962 Topps Civil War News cards. I collected them as a kid back in '62. So I started "hoarding" them a few years ago, with the thought that someday I would start a "nine-card" project, which is popular in my collecting club OBC.
Except for the #1 card (The Angry Man), and the last card in the set #88 (checklist), off grade cards are found under $2 each.
Once I acquired nine #1s, and nine #88s, I put them in sheets and bindered them up. These are the only two numbers I have all nine cards, most of the others I still need five or six cards.
So I guess this is a project I always wanted to do, and finally got started on it!
