I’ve often told myself that I’m NOT building the ‘75 Topps set. (I have Brett, Yount, Ryan, Schmidt, and a handful of other HOFers)

Guess I’m NOT building the mini set, either. I’ve only got five HOFers. I can stop any time I want….

Nice cards. I thought for the longest time that I was "anti-" '75 minis, but at a show last month a Brett Mini RC in an old Beckett slab caught my eye and the price seemed reasonable, so I bought it. They seem very "period correct" to me, which is something I increasingly see as important for whatever reason.
