67t
Back when I was starting collecting again my first purchase was a starter lot of 66 Topps HOFers. It had me thinking, why don't I work on this set! I was ignorantly unaware that the high numbers were so tough. So after a few years, I completed the 66 set, it was a while before I thought about starting 67 mainly due to the tough high numbers. So being this close is awesome, but I also know that it could take a long time to find a Seaver RC that doesn't break my modest collecting budget.
I was lucky enough in some of those 66 high numbers. I traded for #544, picked up a Grant Jackson in EX+ for $20 at a big show, and made trades for another dozen of the SPs.
The 67 set has been no different. I made a trade for the Brooks Robinson. Picked up a pair of Carew RCs from a NET54 member. Traded for a bunch of the SPs and bought some on the cheap at local shows when I have come across them.
I am looking forward to finishing the 67 set one of these days, but luckily I have enough patience (and other sets that I am working on) to let it come to me one of these days... Hope that day is in the near future!
Thanks,
Nate
