I sold off most of my complete sets a couple of years ago, Topps/Fleer/Philly Gum baseball and football from the 50s thru the 70s. I just figured it was time. It was easier for me to do it than to let my family mess with it after I'm gone.

I'm slowly organizing the sets I have left as well as my more valuable singles for a second round of selling.
