Right now, I'm slowly working on the 1964 Topps Giants and 1967 Topps sets. I always liked the 67s and have all the stars except Mantle and the Seaver rookie. I also need several high numbers, so it's going to take a while.
The Topps Giants are special to me. About 40 years ago, my dad bought me a starter lot of about 20 of them for Christmas. it included the Mantle and a few other stars. After my dad passed away last summer, I decided I would try to finish that set. Well, I'm down to a handful, but two of them are the Koufax and Mays, two short-prints.
I'm on a tight budget, but not really condition crazy on the 67s, the Giants are all in at least near mint shape, to match my first batch.
Great topic!
