I was one of the lucky ones whose mom didn't throw their cards away. I first
completed the 1956 baseball set that was the 1st set I remember collecting as a kid.I then completed Topps sets from 1957 to 1962. After completing the Topps run from the years I collected as a youth I completed the 1961 and 1962 Post Cereal, 60 Leaf,59 Fleer Williams,61 Fleer Greats and 1963 Fleer.
For some reason I also completed the 1954 and 1955 Bowman football sets which are the only football cards I own.
In the last few years I have completed the 1948 Bowman baseball and Red Man sets from 1953 to 1955. Currently I'm working on the 1952 Topps (67%) and the 1952 Red Man (83%)
Except for the 1952 Topps which is VGX to EX-MT all the other sets are EX-MT to NRMT.
Collecting keeps the Kid in me young.
