Set Collectors - Report in your progress!

[PowderedH2O]

I am in constant flux. I bounce from set to set and from collection to collection. I am passionate for a while, then I have to step away. So, I collect cards, comics, Olympic autographs, and records. I occasionally pick up an old radio when I am inclined. So, what I tell you I am working on could change in a week. But, as of now, here's where I am:

Baseball: Topps 1973-2017 completed all major sets
1971 & 1966 Topps also complete
1972 Topps 74%
1970 Topps 87%
The rest of the 60's I am hovering in the 40-70% range. I have some big cards, but still need a few.
1959 Topps: 30%
1958 Topps: 96%
1957 Topps: 28%
1956 Topps: 23% (but I do have Mantle)
1955 Topps: 47% (but I have Clemente, Koufax, Killebrew, Williams, Mays)
1955 Bowman: 32% (Have Mantle and Mays)
1954 Topps: 16% (Have Aaron, Williams 250)
1954 Bowman: 85% (Need Mantle, skipping Williams)
1953 Topps: 21% (Have Mantle)
1953 Bowman: 8% (Have Mantle and Musial)
1952 Bowman: 37% (Have Musial and several other HOFers, still need Mantle and Mays)
1952 Topps: Only collecting low numbers, Have only about 20 cards so far.
Working on R313, R314 from 1936 - About 25%

Football: I have complete Topps run from 1968-end minus a handful of 1972 High numbers.
Completed 1954 Bowman, 1956 Topps, 1958 Topps, 1960 Topps. Need 4 cards for 1960 Fleer. Need a few for 57 and 59. The remainder of the 1960's is all over the place, but most of the sets are in good shape with me having big chunks. I could finish any of them at almost any time with some effort.

Got a lot ahead of me. I would like to finish the 1960's for football this year (or come really close) and finish baseball back to 68. But, like I said, stuff happens and I may sork just the opposite.

Down to one card for a 1971/72 Topps Basketball set - Tiny Archibald RC.

Gotta love the design of the cards and the fact that so many of them feature guys wearing their jersey backwards.

After finishing that one, I'm not sure where I'll be focusing on next. Maybe '62 Topps or '55 Bowman Baseball or '69 or '73 Topps Football. Or maybe something else.

That is my favorite basketball set of all time. Good choice!
