Congrats on 68 Chris!


I like how you have different players in the binder cover. Mine all have Harmon Killebrew, my favorite player...then after 75 I went with Reggie Jackson. I think mixing it up may be more fun...I may rip you off on that...

I think you should go the other way. Find some pictures of Killebrew after he retired, as a batting instructor or what-not, and let Jolly Elm create some of his Cards That Never Were for you. You could even get a picture of Harmon from his 1952 high school team. It would be awesome!

I have complete sets of 53 & 54 Topps, and a partial set of 52. But I'm upgrading all of them to only have centered copies of each card, which as you can imagine, is no small task. I'm almost done upgrading my 54s. Maybe a dozen or so left to finish that one. I have about 120 of the 52s dead centered, and about halfway done with upgrading my 53s.

I also have complete sets of 61 & 86 Fleer basketball. The 86 Fleer is all mint or better and all dead centered. My 61 Fleer is complete, with about 5 cards left to upgrade, but that's a super tough set. Some cards effectively never surface dead centered for 61 Fleer basketball.

Also working on a dead centered 52 Topps Look N See set. About 60% complete with that one.

I have several other complete sets and partial sets, but I don't have the bandwidth to work on those until I finish upgrading the ones above, which I'm focusing on first.

That's actually a great idea...I may have to bug ol' Jolly... I do have a few Killebrews that are newer cards that emulate certain years. Like I have the 81 and 82 Topps looking Killebrews...those should be on my binders!

I did grab a "card that never was" and printed one up that was posted here on net54 for the 1957's...as they didn't make a Killer card that year (ROBBED of a classic!!)


Nice work Travis...will you move north to the 55s and 56s when your upgrades are complete?
