Sounds as though this might be doable.

This is like deja Vu all over again. That's how I started the 1953 Bowman set; got the heavies out of the way right off the bat. Only, I've had these heavies quite a while.

Definitely doable - if you’ve got the big names you’ve got 90% of the value - the big rookies are the bulk of the value this year. There’s no tough series in 1954 to escalate the commons. A few odd things like the O’Brien brothers card carrying a bit of a premium but otherwise all common names are pretty cheap in low grade. Fun set to build the commons from, with the low prices and the fun cartoon backs. I only wish all the backs were printed in the same orientation…

There was a gallery thread on this set earlier in which several folks posted the whole set in order in various conditions, including variants. People wanting a “master” set face a daunting task because of the 1-50 gray backs.

I've got three low grade cards from the set if it helps you out. Card #s 11, 33, and 169.

If you need them, I can take front/back scans and shoot them to you in PM sometime today.
