Nice stuff! I just finished my '55 Topps set after starting about 13 years ago (hey, life happens!). I ended up getting commons ungraded and the superstars/HOFers graded. I bounced back and forth on working either the '58 or '59 set and ended up going with the '58. I'm slowly growing to like working on sets. Good luck with yours!

Default Down to six...

Just got back from Westchester "March Madness" show...very crowded and I ended up grabbing two more for my 1959 Topps set...I have really lousy luck finding a centered Pirates Team card that wasn't checked, so I sort of settled with this one thought the corners are really nice. If anyone has any of the following 6 cards I'm looking for, please drop me a line...

10 Mickey Mantle
543 Corsair Trio
559 All Star - Earnie Banks
561 All Star - Hank Aaron
563 All Star - Willie Mays
564 All Star - Mickey Mantle

I know the feeling of being so close. Keep going! Nice pickups by the way. Wish I could help on your last few but maybe some other set some other day.
Good Luck!
