Default Collecting Graded Rainbows...

When your pretty much done set collecting the challenge is finding a new way to collect for fun. Locally at a card show there were several folks discussing how they were collecting a "rainbow" of grades for the 1989 Upper Deck Griffey card and how there was an actual premium on a nice looking "1".

I found that kind of fascinating...so...I thought why not "rainbow" one of my favorite all time cards? It's been fun chipping away on the 1955 Topps Harmon Killebrew. I first submitted a couple raw cards I had, then I've been just chipping away here and there, and recently added a 3.5 from Net54 (thanks Al!). I figure I will go to 7...so I need a 4.5, 5, 6.5, and a 7 to complete.

I don't like creases, so it was a challenge to find the proper "1"...landed on a beauty thats a bit OC, which I don't mind.

Anyone else doing anything like this???
