1975 Beaters set- need some heroes
 

For kicks, I'm putting together a low grade 1975 Topps set. The criteria is that I spend a total of no more than $25 on the set and that the cards are at best G/Vg. So far I have over 580 of the cards and have spent a total of $2.95. I have achieved this through many donations of some kind collectors.

As I was building my second and third set, my intent was to build a set in lower grade condition. When I finished building the sets, they were no worse than Ex or ExMt. I want a well worn set. There are some cards I may eventually seek downgrades on.

I'm seeking cards which are dog-eared or wrinkled or warped or whatever- just not torn in half.
I already have a ton of dupes and three nicer complete 1975 sets so this is not to enhance a 1975 collection, it is done merely for kicks and to see if I can do what I set out to do.
I don't need the Brett and quite a few HOFers, but I do need a few others.

The kicker is that I can not spend much at all for any cards and I will gladly accept contributions to the cause. So if you wish to take part in this endeavor, don't expect to break the bank, I have a strict limit.

If you are willing to help out or participate in this, the cards I need are...
Please post the numbers you have...

I think I may have several on your list do you have other 75s to trade?

I have some on your list. Sending PM

Thank you to those fine collectors who have added some nice beaters to this list. Down to only needing 35 cards. Still only spent $10.57 so far.
I hope to pay about $1 for the remaining stars unless someone kindly has one or two of the stars.

Nice work
 

Nice work, want to double your $ and sell it to me for $25 when your done :D

Not sure what to do with it afterwards. I think I shall bask in the legacy of it for a while.
Either I may go for the nine set ordeal or I might find someone in need of a set or I might give it to my nephew.

Down to nine cards needed now...

90, 93, 192, 196, 199, 201, 211, 230, 611

I looked at my 75 commons (which are VG+ and EX) but don't have anything you need.

But then I saw your link to the OBC site and that is way cool. I just got back into cards (49 year old) w 2 baseball playing sons (11 and 13)...and that is such a cool site and idea. I might even apply to OBC!

I enjoy OBC. Great Cameraderie.

Down to four cards... Wanting no better than G/Vg but will take better if that is the only options.
Would also like to thank the many people who have helped this.

90, 93, 199, 211

Now only needing two cards. Does anyone have these, preferably in ugly shape, but will accept better. Willing to trade if needed.


Need

93- Dave Lopes and
211 Maris/F. Robinson MVP

Last two cards are on the way.
Many thanks to those who assisted. I'd give a shout out to each individually, but these cards came at me rapid fire and my record keeping was somewhat shoddy.

I hope to post pics of the set once I have all of the cards where they belong.
