I'll agree on the 66 Grant Jackson...throw in the Mahafie and the Perranoski. Putting that set together was difficult, and it's pretty rare when ANY Topps card simply has NOTHING on Ebay at times. Even the 52 Mantle always has 10 or so cards to choose from. Some of those 66's would be empty...crazy.

In the 65's it is strange, but the Bob Uecker is a card that is routinely above book, and yes, the 61 high numbers. Putting sets together, here is a list of cards I have found difficult and had to overpay or wait on -

1954 Topps - Wally Moon
1954 Topps - Johnny Sain
1957 Topps - Mid Series (Tough)
1957 Topps - Ted Klewsuski
1961 Topps - High Numbers
1964 Topps - Curt Flood (WHY???)
1965 Topps - Mel Stottlemeyer
1965 Topps - Bob Uecker
1965 Topps - Richie Allen
1966 Topps - Horace Clark
1966 Topps - Grant Jackson
1966 Topps - Ron Perranoski
1966 Topps - Art Mahafie
1970 Topps - Seattle Pilots Team
1971 Topps - Lou Brock
1973 Topps - Gary Mathews RC



Just a few I had to overpay or had difficulty locating. I am perplexed on the 64 Curt Flood...I still need the card and can't find one anywhere but Ebay..there are plenty available, but 30-$50??? WHY?
