Anyone Trading 1961 Topps, Especially Hi Numbers?? (more cards added, Santo RC)

[JollyElm]

I'm trying to complete my 1961 Topps baseball set and after a bunch of recent trades, I am down to only needing about 30 cards to finish it off. Most of what I'm missing are high numbers and HOF'ers, but I'm hoping there are some people out there who got 'em to trade. I just bought some more high numbers, including Felipe Alou, and a Ron Santo rookie, so I added a scan of those cards to the tally.

As you can see from the scans, I have plenty of 1961 cards to trade--including a few stars and many of the incredibly hard to find high numbers. Every card shown is available for trade, and I also have a ton of stuff from 1957 through the early 70's--with plenty of stars, HOF'ers and high numbers--if you are looking to pick those up instead.

PLMK what you have from my need list and what you're looking for in return.

If you don't have anything from my list...I will consider trading for other things I don't need--especially if I have multiples of a particular card to trade--but you have to offer things that I could easily use as trade bait with other people (stars, HOF'ers, tough high numbers, etc.) for me to consider parting with any of these high numbers. Ask yourself this question: If I was offering you the same cards you are offering me, would you jump at the chance to get them?? If the answer is 'YES!,' then shoot me a PM and we can talk.

Also, a bunch of the high numbers in my set (Mazeroski, Wilhelm and Friend immediately come to mind) have nice corners but are way off center, so if you have any highs that are decently centered and in nice shape, I may be able to use them as upgrades. Keep that in mind.

Before anyone asks, sorry, I'm not looking to sell anything at this time.
