I am trying to complete my 1961 Topps set and after a few trades I'm down to needing less than 30 cards to finish it off. Most of what I'm missing are high numbers and HOF'ers, but I'm hoping there are people out there who got 'em to trade. I recently bought some more high numbers--like Felipe Alou, Ron Perranoski and Jim Gentile--plus I have a Ron Santo rookie, Lou Gehrig, Roberto Clemente and a very hard to find SP Roy Campanella MVP, so I added scans of those cards to the tally as well.

I have plenty of 1961 cards to trade--including a few stars and many of the coveted high numbers. Every card shown in the scans is available for trade, and I also have a ton of stuff from 1957 through the early 70's--with plenty of stars, HOF'ers and high numbers--if you are looking to pick those up instead.

PLMK what you have from my need list and what you're looking for in return.

If you don't have anything from my list...I will consider trading for other things I don't need--especially if I have multiples of a particular card to trade--but you have to offer things that I could easily use as trade bait with other people (stars, HOF'ers, tough high numbers, etc.) for me to consider parting with any high numbers. These are incredibly tough to come by.

Sorry, I'm not looking to buy or sell anything at this time, just trade.

I Need These 1961's (exmt. shape):
2 (Maris), 49 (NL Strikeout Leaders), 160 (Ford), 265 (Kubek), 287 (Yastrzemski), 344 (Koufax), 400 (Law), 415 (Aaron), 417 (Marichal), 425 (Berra), 430 (Mazeroski), 449 (Bolin), 461 (Burgess), 464 (Thomas), 465 (McMillan), 472 (Berra MVP), 484 (Aaron MVP), 489 (Dropo), 528 (Ramos), 531 (Coates), 544 (Thomas), 549 (Smith), 577 (Aaron AS), 578 (Mantle AS), 579 (Mays AS), 580 (Kaline AS), 586 (Ford AS)

Also...some of the high numbers in my set (Mazeroski, Wilhelm and Friend immediately come to mind) have nice corners but are way off center, so if you have any highs that are decently centered and in nice shape but aren't on my need list, I may want to trade for them as upgrades. Keep that in mind, too.

I Have These 1961s to Trade (in various conditions):
3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 12, 13, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 23, 24, 26, 27, 29, 31, 32, 33, 35 (Santo RC), 36, 37, 38, 42, 45, 46, 47a, 47b, 48, 50, 51, 54, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60, 61, 62, 64, 68, 69, 71, 72, 73, 75, 76, 77, 78, 79, 81 (rough), 84, 86, 87, 88, 89, 90, 91, 92, 98, 100, 101, 102, 103, 104, 108, 110, 111, 113, 114, 115, 117, 118, 119, 122, 125, 126, 127, 128, 130, 131, 132, 134, 135, 136, 137, 138, 139, 140, 143, 144, 146, 149, 153, 156, 157, 158, 159, 161, 162, 163, 165, 166, 167, 168, 169, 170, 171, 172, 174, 175, 176, 178, 179, 181, 183, 184, 185, 187, 188, 189, 190, 192, 193, 194, 195, 196, 198, 199, 201, 203, 206, 209, 216, 218, 219, 220, 221, 222, 223, 224, 225, 226, 227, 231, 233, 240, 242, 243, 246, 247, 250, 251, 254, 255, 256, 257, 260 (Drysdale), 264, 267, 268, 272, 273, 278, 280, 281, 282, 284, 285, 286, 288, 289, 291, 292, 293, 294, 295, 299, 301, 303, 306, 310, 312, 313, 314, 315, 317, 318, 319, 320, 321, 322, 323, 324, 326, 328, 329, 330 (Colavito), 331, 332, 333, 334, 335, 336, 337, 339, 343, 345, 346, 347, 348, 352, 355, 357, 358, 361, 362 (rough), 363, 365, 367, 369, 370, 372, 374, 377, 379, 381, 383, 388 (Clemente), 389, 390, 392, 393, 395, 397, 398, 404, 405 (Gehrig), 407, 411, 414, 416, 418, 420, 422, 428 (SP), 432, 433, 434, 436, 437, 438, 441, 450, 452, 462, 463, 467, 468, 469, 473, 479, 480 (Campanella MVP), 481 (Sauer MVP), 483 (Newcombe MVP), 486 (Groat MVP), 487, 488, 492, 494, 496, 497, 500, 501, 502, 503, 504, 505, 506, 508, 509, 513, 514, 517 (McCovey), 518, 521, 522, 523, 525, 527, 529, 530, 533, 534, 535, 536, 537, 538, 539, 540, 543, 546, 550, 552, 555, 557, 559, 560, 561, 562, 563, 564, 565, 566 (Richards AS), 568 (Skowron AS), 569 (Herrera AS), 572 (Robinson AS), 573 (Boyer AS), 575 (Banks AS), 584 (Perry AS)
