What's next? Sell the Bowman sets and buy a Mantle to start on the rest of the 52s

Congrats! I agree, take on the Bowmans. I especially enjoyed building the '50 set.

congrats on your great collection!

my own opinion/recommendation is to take a temporary break from collecting and enjoy the collection you've put together. Maybe once a day/week/whenever sit down and thumb thru one of the sets. Maybe you'll notice a lower condition card that you'd like to upgrade, or maybe you'll see a prewar player that is honored in one of your sets who interests you and you'll decide to start collecting prewar of that player. Don't search for it, let it come to you.

Maybe you'll just continue to pick up the latest Topps set every year going forward and opening packs with your son?

Good luck!

That's an amazing accomplishment regardless of your next thing to do.

Have you considered or perhaps you already have done this, but the wrapper and boxes for each set? That would be really cool!

Again kudos!

Cheers,

John

Congrats on a nice run.....plenty of other sets out there for completing, Post cereal sets are enjoyable to put together as are the Fleer sets from the 60s.
