I would strongly disagree with this. It isn't complete with the Wagner and Plank, but the other two are variations with one or two different letters. Where do you stop with variations, then backs? Is 1952 Topps not complete with both Mantles, Jackies, Page and Sain variations, black and red backs, grey back 2nd series, etc.?
No set is worth completing. They are all worth less than what it takes to complete them. Why else would dealers buy sets from AHs and break them up? I spent the last 4 years completing a t205 set that I started 30 years ago. I will never do another set again. And I didn't bother doing all the variations, again because it would never end. If you enjoy putting together sets, then just consider your lost value the cost of entertainment. I guess after 50 years of chasing cards for sets, the work is no longer enjoyable for me.
