I've begun to work on Topps Baseball sets from 1970 and 1972. So far, I've purchased a 1972 starter set off eBay and have deals worked out for another starter set from a member on this site. Both are missing a considerable amount of high numbers and stars.

I began to purchase and trade for the 70s set though here and off of eBay. I also have a deal worked for some stars and high numbers, it's just a matter of sending the funds. What I need is a fairly comprehensive starter set of 550-600+ cards in excellent to near-mint condition. There have been a few on eBay, but the asking prices are high for the quality of the cards.

The 1971 set was easy to assemble and somewhat difficult to upgrade. The prices of the semi and semi-high numbers for 70 and 72 will have to go at a slower pace due to the prices and the number of missing cards in each set.

  • I'm now just 14 cards away from completing my 55T set.
  • 64 Topps Giants are complete. Mr Koufax was the last card I needed.
  • I've also completed 72 Kelloggs bringing me to 66% for the full Kelloggs run.

Very nice, Chris.

Since I haven't updated this thread in a while (just monthly pickup posts) within the past few months, including just 4 days ago, I have managed to pick up these highs which now brings my number down to 22 remaining. (all highs)

I honestly never thought I'd be able to grab these cards in such a short period, but I guess I got lucky for the most part?

I just started this set. Builds from scratch are very rare for me, but the '50 Bowman may be my favorite set to look at.

Decided that I wanted only clean mid-grade cards from top to bottom, because this is going to be a special part of my collection. No wrinkles (except for possibly those close to the corner small diagonal ones) and nice surfaces.

Was ready to be as patient as necessary. But, go figure, the perfect Jackie for the set's goals showed up right away (and went for the right price). Sometimes I love BVG 5s and the steep slab discount you get for the great cards that might be in them, and that's what happened. It's on its way.

So, now I'm at 6/252 Also have Yogi, Rizzuto, Parnell, and two commons.

I am looking for:

1963 Fleer (vg at best) - #13 J Kindall, # 32 R Santo, #35 B Purkey, #57 E Face, and # 66 B O'Dell. - I stopped looking on ebay because of the near mint prices on vg cards PLUS $8.00 shipping. Nope not going to do that.

Also looking for:

E47 Jockey's (vg at best) - C Ginistrelli, J Galway, E Corrigan, P D'Arenberg

N72 Coins Of All Nations (vg at best) - Corea, England, Peru, Servia

The search continues for reasonably priced cards and shipping.
Thanks,
Bob
