With the purchase of Bob Schultz (finally) I am now down to 2 cards remaining to finish my 52 Topps set.
2 tough cards remaining in Wilhelm, and especially Mathews, but I haven't given up hope yet.

That’s awesome. I know that one has been a long, yet thrilling ride.

Congrats, Dale. Wilhelm and Mathews are out there but definitely won't be cheap to get (especially getting them to you in Canada). Looking forward to seeing updates when you do get them.

Just got the last 5 needed to fill my 1966 set from a GM auction - Russ Snyder, Billy Williams, Gary Bell, Tony Oliva and Ron Perransoski.

Probably paid a bit too much for Snyder and Williams, but a EX-EXMINT in GM standards Oliva for $10.50 seems like a steal.

Thanks, JW.

Since 2016 when I joined this site.
I already had 148 my father gave me, including Mantle, Mays and Robinson, so it was definitely easier than starting from scratch, but a heck of an endeavor nonetheless.

Thanks, Jay.

The current exchange rate is a killer, as are most shipping fees, so it makes it extra tough for sure.
I'm pretty sure I'll have to get real lucky somehow obtaining the last two but my fingers are crossed.

About a month ago I decided to start a set of 1965 Topps baseball. I only had a few commons to get started, but the first pack of cards that I ever opened was 1965 Topps baseball. My son found a deal at a LCS on a bunch of SP’s and hi numbers along with some of the minor stars and grabbed them so that was the clincher to get me rolling. I have since purchased a few groups of cards and some of the stars. So I’m down to needing 135 cards. I should be able to get that number down a bunch next week at the National.

1950 Bowman complete with the purchase of Jackie Robinson at The National

Nice Jackie there Dave. Congratulations on completing your set.
