At the White Plains show recently, a couple dealers both commented how with Baseball sets from the 50's and 60's, the trend seems to be to buy high grade stars and has gone away from set building. With football, they said they had seen quite a few people looking for commons, etc... I think the smaller size of the football sets helps people go after the complete set, which I guess is a good thing going forward.

I would tend to agree. With these smaller size football sets you invariably wind up with a higher percentage of stars/HOFers/rookies. And you never know when some of the borderline stars will be added to the Hall of Fame, so it just seems logical to get them all. I've seen some of these 50's and 60's complete football sets sell for less than some of the individual star cards from the 50's and 60's baseball sets. Vintage football is insanely cheap.
