The last card you needed for a set

Thanks! Would you believe only one card was subbed from my raw set? As I mentioned in another thread about the Card Collectors Company (see Post #7), I completed the Babe Ruth and World Series subsets through the mail. Those are the only high-grade cards in my raw set that were submission-worthy. Card #139 ("Babe Hits 60" with green tint) is the only card that made the grade of PSA 7 or better. The rest of the graded set was bought through purchases with other collectors (with a lot of thanks to Bosox76 -- a very knowledgeable '62T collector) and eBay.
