I came across this article in the Sports Collectors News 9-19-1977. It states that there are as few as 20 complete sets in existence. PSA has over 2700 graded examples in there pop reports. Thoughts? Hopefully you can read it. It looks so good on my IPad until I upload it.F0662541-DCFD-4E56-B13B-56C4CC30B59A.jpg

I went overboard on this set, which I like a lot. I completed it first in grey back deckled, then white back deckled ( white is tougher) , then in undeckled proof form ( cut from sheets but no deckle cut, just straight edges) , and finally found two uncut sheets with the entire set. Hardest card for me to get was white back deckled Fisk. Also have a couple of unopened packs

Al: do you believe Lifson in that there may be no more than 20 sets? And was it exclusively limited to the Boston area and available for only 2 weeks or so?

FWIW - the first five 1974 Deckle cards I purchased towards my set were from a Trader Speaks ad placed that year by a Boston area collector.

The set was produced on two sheets. I have to think a lot more than 20 of each sheet were produced. I am not a graded collector but it looks like there are 8 or so completed sets on the Registry. I have 4 sets. And, I bet if someone has access to the PSA population reports it will show a lot more than 20 for different players. I do think the white backs are much scarcer. See Dave Hornish's blog about why that might be
