1955 Topps partial set
 
4 Attachment(s)
I have a partial 1955 Topps set that I am looking to sell. I had a buyer for it, but he backed out at the last minute. I thought I would try here before eBay.

There are 202/206 cards. The missing cards are:
2 Ted Williams
47 Hank Aaron
164 Roberto Clemente RC
194 Willie Mays

The set is a solid EX to EX+ throughout. It includes 4 graded cards: Koufax (SGC 5) , Killebrew (SGC 5), Berra (SGC 5.5) and Snider (SGC 5). There were many other cards that were graded, but I cracked them out to display raw with the set. Those cards are Banks, Kaline, Mathews, Zimmer RC, Spahn, Rhodes all graded 5 or better. I saved all the flips, so I can include them with the set.

It also includes a Jackie Robinson that was graded a PSA 5. I cracked it out with intentions of sending it to SGC early last month on their ‘50s Special, but never got around to sending it. I have the flip for it too.

If you wanted to complete the set, I figure it can be done for about $1357. That is VCP average (for an SGC 5) for the 4 missing cards – Williams $182, Aaron, $152, Clemente $830 and Mays $193 – maybe less if you go raw.

I figure if the set were complete, it’s worth about $4000 - $4500. So, I subtracted $1357 (what it would take to complete it) from that, and that leaves $2643. I need to get about $2500 and I’m pretty firm at that price. I may have a little wiggle room, but not much. I'm not looking to cheap sell it, please don't ask.

Also willing to do a partial trade. Things I’m looking for:
E92 Dockmans SGC 50 or better
1956 Topps SGC 84 or better
Other T or E HOFers VG/EX or better.

Some scans (many, many more available)...

A few more scans...

The Robinson is not as clear as the other scans. It was done here at work while the others were done from my home scanner.

All cards come in a Card Saver (Ultra Pro equivalent) inside a vault box. 2 more pics. Heading to eBay tonight.
