I don't know. maybe you guys can help with suggestions.
My budget does not allow for anything expensive which was part of why I went with the 63 Fleer. I like doing smaller sets like this one.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Bob

The 2 sets I would love to do are the 1964 Topps Stand Ups and the 1971 Greatest Moments. Both out of my price range.

However, the 1964 Topps Supers are a possibility.

Still need 2 cards to finish my 61 Topps baseball set. Show in town tomorrow, hopefully I'll find them.
Congrats on the 63 Fleer set.

I know I've posted here a couple of times bout my 1958 Topps set. But I've got some bad news this time. I am 1 card away from finishing, however, I've got to give the set up and sell it.

We were informed last week while on vacation in Disney World that my wife's job had been terminated. Long story, but they decided to terminate her instead of paying her the 2 weeks of vacation time she was due.

So she's out of a job right now at Christmas time, so I'm having to sell my starter set (I've already got it listed in the BST for $965, but it surprisingly hasn't drawn a bit of interest to this point). I'm hoping it sells pretty quickly. I guess if she can find a new job fairly quickly that I won't have to sell and can, maybe, finish it.

But for now, I've got to stop building my 1958 Topps set and let it go. Sad news as I hate being so close and not being able to finish.

I finished series 3 of my 1972 Topps set this evening. Onto series 4, 5, & 6 now. I am sitting at 593/799. That includes the variations that I know about.

Picked up Grady Hatton, George Metkovich, and Bob Lemon to put me at 272/310 of the 1952 Topps low number set. The only "big" names remaining are Phil Cavaretta, Billy Loes, and Johnny Sain. The majority of the rest are the short prints between 260-280. Chipping away at it!

I would second the notion for the '64 Topps Giants (supers). Great photography (maybe the best of the 60's Topps sets) and can usually be found in NrMt shape. The Mick and Koufax and Mays have gone up in recent times, but are still affordable.

I first put this set together in the late 80's/early 90's. Then my son put it together several years ago as a first foray into vintage cards. Since then, he and I have been working on a signed set and am down to three cards - Clemente, Farrell and Mays. Been holding steady at -3 for a while now.

Picked up the 1955 and 1956 Yankee team cards to "finish" my "set" of 1947-66 Exhibit cards. I've got all the confirmed checklisted cards, which is where I'm stopping. I'm not going for sepia/b&w variations or the differences in the lengths of the Printed in USA or Made in USA legends like whiteymet.

I made a lot of progress on 1959 Topps on Black Friday/Cyber Monday on COMC. I don't have many hall of famers, but I'm at 27/66 of the high numbers.

1959 Topps 213/572 37.2%

Completed the 1972 set, which means I have the Topps run from 1970 to present day finished. On to the 60s!

I managed to win this card in last nights The Collector's Connection auction.



It was the final card I needed to finish my 1968 set. I started working '68 about 4 years ago. Two years ago, I needed 6 to finish the set and added 4 over the course of the subsequent year. So, for the last year, I have needed two to finish. I managed to win the Lou Brock a few weeks back with Greg Morris, leaving just the Ryan RC. I've really struggled with Ryan because $300-$400 is the upper end of what I can afford and this card consistently sold for more than that. Obviously, the card has some serious fading on the left hand side, but that doesn't bother me since the condition otherwise is right where I would want it.

Now, on to 1960, where I only need 2 to finish, and 1965, where I am 21 cards short of the full set.

Default (re)completed 1957 set!

I had a complete '57 set until I sold a PSA 4 Ted WIlliams to a Net 54 member back in April. Figured I'd upgrade quickly, but it's taken until now to find a card I liked.

Lesson I keep having to learn while upgrading - don't sell the card I have until the replacement is in hand

Anyhow, here's the new Williams along with a few of my favorites from the set.

So my son and I walk into one of the local card shops to look at a few cards that my son was interested. The owner had just purchased a collection. My son picks out a few from the ones set aside for him, and as we are getting ready to leave one of the guys pulls out a large box of cards that he says he needs to go through for pricing. They are more cards from the recently purchased collection. We ask if we can take a look. My son takes a hand full of cards out of the box. The first card he sees is 1961 Ernie Banks all-star card. Woo hoo I'm now down to needing 1 card to finish my 61 Topps baseball set.
It was the only 1961 Topps baseball cards in the collection purchased!

Default 1966 topps

It's been a 50+ yr. journey, some years being more assertive than others when I started putting together my '66 Topps set. After a little luck and kindness shown on net54 I'm down to now needing just 30 cards, all but one being a high # card.

Still searching and enjoying the process. Currently looking.

This has been a huge year for me as I completed the 1954 Red Heart set (finished with a generous gift from a board member) and my 1964 topps set.

Even better, I completed my dream set: 1953 topps. The last card I needed was Mays and I bought it from a dealer friend at a great discount. Still, $1,100 is the most I have ever paid for a card by far. I had a couple opportunities for side jobs and my wife was encouraging of me getting at as she understands it was probably now or never.

Love this thread and happy hunting

Answer: Gene Conley

Question: What was the last card I needed to complete the 56 Topps set - the first 50s set I’ve ever finished? I couldn’t be happier.

Default 1967 Topps

Perfect time to check in with an end-of-year update. Since last time I've made some decent progress including addition of Seaver, Perez, a couple of leader cards, and several high numbers. Down to needing 17 10 total. I'm looking for the following in NM centered (with no tilt) and preferably ungraded. Would consider nice EXMT. PSA or SGC is OK if fairly priced. Can anybody lend a hand with these last few? Hoping to knock this one off early in 2022 so I can go after 54 Bowman and 75 Topps with gusto.

Nice cards Irv and Anthony!


Finished my duplicate 1965 Topps set...really love this iconic set. This is the 4th time I've built this set, and have watched my brother build it twice, so lots of experience around the nuances of this one. Sitting on two of these set is also a lot of fun. While working on 2nd 60's sets I'm also upgrading my other sets to EX+, which is also fun to involve the others. Last time I built this set, Bob Uecker was the last card...this go around...Mr. Perez Rookie. My original is NRMT, so to finish out a nice VG/EX that was priced right was a-ok with me...

I went to a great card show in Milwaukee and picked up a dozen 67T high numbers, which all look about like Larry Sherry below. The dealer, who basically threw in the Ryan No Dot for me, said he bought a 67T set from Uncle Jimmy's collection, used some of the cards to upgrade his set and had the rest up for sale (which was most of them). If these were his rejects I would love to see his keepers!
