cardsagain, good luck on what you decide.

I enjoy looking at your progress in the 1952 thread. In fact, it's cool to see how anybody's set building is coming along from a certain set even in the prewar section. I like seeing people's weekly pickups and especially when they take the time to post pictures.

I think what was mentioned here is correct. I find that it's tough and slow progress when you try and build the 60's or 70's topps sets card by card. Or, even when you get a partial set of 50 to 70 percent of the cards, then try and fill in the rest.. It can get kind of expensive as well.

Now, for the 50's.. If you can swing it, you can always get a partial set there, then continue building it... 1955 for example has 206 cards, compared to the huge 1972 set.

I am chugging away at my 1952 set slowly now, as I've done some focusing on prewar now... but maybe in a few months I'll go back to it, I seem to change my collecting focus a lot!
