Probably a bit late to the party, but how many others have had luck working on getting the 1986 Topps baseball set autographed?
I've just started, focusing on getting cards signed through-the-mail, and picking up signed cards for deceased players off of ebay. So far this week I got these back in the mail: ![]() ![]() ![]()

Nice set to get signed.
I'm currently (slowly) working on a 1978T (384/726) and 1984D (229/660).

Nice set for signatures! The tough ones are Ramon Romero, Joe Desa and Doug Flynn I believe.
The checklists are good for players who appeared in a 1985 game but did not have card, or umpires, announcers etc. Working on the 1975 Topps Baseball set, I have 634 of the 660 cards signed so far including the checklists. Was thinking of doing the 1985 set if I complete the 75 set. |

I want to do an 86 auto set so bad. I did a ‘76 set ( the first set for wfh b I bought packs) and it was a blast. Was thinking of doing 10 year bookends…86 and 66

Yeah, '86 was my first pack year. But already there's like 100 cards in the set of deceased players, and in the short time I started this project, we lost another two. (I think my letter TTM was about 2 weeks too late for Ryne Sandberg...)

Add Terry Forster, Roy Lee Jackson, Kelvin Chapman and Luis Sanchez to the list of very tough to obtain players in this set.

Flynn hasn't been tough on this card for several years; rather, he's just expensive. He'll sign it for a large donation which goes to his church or charity. I want to say the fee is $400. Kevin T. can chime in here.

And if you're also doing the Traded set, Forster is double trouble.
