Default Anyone collect 1955 Topps Rails & Sails?

Hi all,

I just started collecting this set with my five year old grandson. He absolutely loves trains, which is what gave me the idea. He's also become a fan of the boats as we recently brought him to see the ships & sub at Battleship Cove in Fall River, MA. So far, we have 88 of the 200 cards. I was wondering if there's anyone else on here that collects this set? We are looking for raw cards in about VG condition (he has an album of 8 page sheets). I've listed the numbers that we need below. We also have a few duplicates if anyone is looking to trade. I'd also love to get a wrapper or box front to attach to the album.

Thanks for looking! Best regards, Steve

Our duplicates (all about VG condition): 6, 132, 136, 145, 156, 163

We are missing:

#'s 3, 4, 5, 8, 9, 10, 12, 14, 18, 20, 21, 24, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 34, 36, 37, 38, 39,41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 61, 62, 65, 66, 67, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73, 74, 75, 76, 78-130 missing every one, 133, 134, 138, 139, 142, 143, 150, 152, 168, 185, 186, 190, 194, 195, 199

Desiderata

You are a child of the universe,
no less than the trees and the stars;
you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you,
no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.
With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams,
it is still a beautiful world.
Strive to be happy.
