For some reason I decided I needed a complete run of Red Man sets 1952-1955
I've completed 1954 and with a dozen cards on their way to me I'm just 3 cards short of a 1953 set.
I'm doing them without tabs and pretty open on condition as long as they look good
I plan to have all the sets in one binder. Since they all look the same from the front I've printed out the advertising signs from each year and put them in to separate the years.
I'll start tackling the 1955 set soon. I only have about five cards right now.

1965 Old London Coins PSA 7 or better 27 out of 40

I finished the 1972 Topps poster set. It's only 24 posters but kind of tough to find in decent condition between pin holes in the corners, wax stains, and the numerous folds. It is neat to have a set with 12 HOFers and also Pete Rose.

Congrats on the 72 Posters. How do you display them ? I had to get an Artist Portfolio binder due to the size

I did the same. I got one for both the 68 and 72 poster sets. They look pretty nice in the folio.

They are big and a bit bulky but work great for viewing them unfolded

Finished my 1963 Topps baseball set today with the last card coming in the mail. At first I didn't really like the set with the bright colors but it slowly grew on me. Once I got the Rose rookie out of the way the set was fairly easy to complete but it was surprising that the 5th series was tougher to track down than the 6th or 7th series.
On to the 1964 set. I like the team names at the top of the 64 cards.

Cool, I have Aaron, Mays and Seaver framed on my wall.
