[Robs70sCards]

I bought some cards last week after not buying any all year.

But I did make progress with this buy, finished my 1974 and 1979 Topps sets, down to about 10 cards between the 1976-1977 sets, picked up a few 1973s bringing the total to 2 more cards for the 1973 set (Concepcion & Dwight Evans), and picked up a bunch of high number 71's bringing my total remaining cards to get at 24! Also filled in some 1972 stuff including Hank Aaron and Clemente. I already have complete sets of 1975, 1978 and 1980. I bought a set of Mid-grade 75s last year. Wasn't a big fan of 1975 but once I got them in the binder they've really grown on me.

My goal is to finish the 71s this year but I have some heavy hitters left (Banks/Mays/Clemente/D Baker primarily), and finish out the 12 cards for the 73, 76, & 77 sets, then I'll have every set complete from 1973 to 1980 leaving the 1970 and 1972 as the longer term project. 96.37% complete for 1970-1980.
