Wow, 487 / 609. That's a heck of a "start". Assuming the scans you posted are representative of the grade you're collecting, that's going to be a really nice set.
Nice thread, too. Fun read for me. I love reading about people's pursuit of various Topps sets -- especially when it's in the context of a lengthy run of sets. Good luck with the rest of the set. Cheers, Richard. |

Nice work John! I have put that set together so I know how tough it can be. You are off to a great start! I am not a variation collector either but your post might motivate me to look at my set a little closer!
That Alomar card is a tough one and an absolute steal at .75!!! Last edited by stlcardsfan; 01-03-2014 at 08:21 AM. Reason: sp |

That's funny...I was going to ask the same question. Just checked my 3 Bob Johnsons...no red line. Thanks for the scans Al!

I've been trying to get that Maris Yankees proof for quite awhile now. Its a toughy and rarely offered. Luckily I picked up a Seaver RC yesterday, just to tie me over.
