I’m getting closer on 2 sets

1964 topps 2nd set only needing 2 more…rose and Clemente

1968 topps only needing 2 more…mantle and mantle


I also started 72 topps and another 66 topps (I’m a crazy guy)

1966 topps 2nd set only needing about 40 cards 1-522 and 35 highs

1972 topps needing 28 more

I'm rolling into the Natty with a giant list of cards needed to finish sets. I hope to knock off a bunch of them.

Earlier this month I finished my 1971 Topps Baseball Coin set. Now, since I'm reliving my collecting childhood days 1970-1975, I've started collecting Topps Football from 1970 and 1971 in lesser condition. When those are done, I'd like to do a 1-263 run of the 1972 Football. One day, I'll work on the basketball sets for 1970, 71, and 72.

Happy collecting!

I am down to 29 cards in my 1952 Topps set. I am focusing on centering and new certifications. I put a complete set together 8 years ago with an average grade of 6.5. This new set will average out at about 5.5 and will far surpass my old set. Those PSA grading standards are tough these days.

John, it is crazy. I need three high numbers and 26 low numbers. Most of the low numbers are from 80-270.

That is crazy...good luck as you finish, outstanding accomplishment! I've toyed with the idea for years and never had the nerves to do it.

Today, I purchased the last card I needed to complete my vg-ex 1971 Topps Football set, #245 Joe Greene from eBay. Yesterday, I also bought the 71 Topps Football poster set as well, I have a group of 1970 Topps Football cards arriving later today, which will put me withing striking distance of completing that set as well.

Next to work on:

Finish the 1967 Topps Baseball poster set
Upgrade the 1969 Topps Deckle and 1970 Scratch Off sets
Purchase/Trade for a 1971 Topps Scratch Off set complete, and if possible, the 1971 Football playing card set
Purchase/Trade for a 1972 Topps Football 1-263 run in vg to vg-ex condition

Let's see what happens. Happy collecting!
