Congratulations Rob!

I completed '54-'80 a few years ago...cashed '57-'80 in

...and have started 'Topps the Gathering' once more.

Not sure I want to go all the way this time...

not at the pace I'm going.

I may just complete the '53 - I have most of it.

To be honest, I got a little depressed once I got that last card.

Surely, the thrill is in the chase. That made it easier to say goodbye.

Hey, don't listen to this old guy...Enjoy your collection.

Congratulations on the set run!

I love the Red Heart set, and the DanDee will certainly keep you busy. That set may pose a challenge for you.

Thanks guys, it's been a fun ride. Now time to upgrade and expand to other sets! I have always loved the post war stuff. For some reason the T cards don't do it for me as much.

I've already started. Never thought I'd like them, but I have been pleasantly surprised so far.

Default Here too

Rob, I 'd like to congratulate you here too, after saying so on the OBC thread.
That's a great run!

I'm down to 27 which includes the 1952 low series but I haven't gotten one in months...maybe I don't want it to end
Of course, to me...it's a side project to go after the Topps run since the T's and the E's really do it for me

I might be able to help with 52 lows, but there are some Real Tipton mints 10 or Tipton gem mint 11's in there so you'd probably want to upgrade before you pull them out of the envelope LOL.

Once again, congrats on a very cool accomplishment!

Congrats on the completion. I'm sure I'm in the minority, but I like the floating heads (for some unknown reason). The Rose looks pretty nice as the final card.

Mark 9....there are a lot of 60s and 70s Topps odd ball. Some easy. Some hard . Some impossible

Mark 7...how disappointing about your fondness for floating heads :-0
