The last card you needed for a set

[Rich Klein]

Something weird is about the 1968 Lee May card. It is the semi high series and I once sold, 12 of them in one Albany show for probably $1 each when they booked for probably a quarter.

The minute the crowd heard I had a few, they ALL were sold that show.

The Bobby Cox was tough for me in packs in 1969 as well one of the last I needed

Any comment on tougher 72s? I've found the Ron Cey RC is a tough one to get, also 70 Gamble RC gets some love

70 Gamble is indeed a toughie in high grade. My last card for the 70 set.

Just finished another 1971 set and the last card I needed was #608 Mike Wegener. Not because it is tough to find but tough to find centered unless you want to pay through the nose for a slabbed high grade. This card is prone to O/C to the right. Finnaly found one raw and failrly cheap that was centered after looking for over a year.

I've worked with my dad for a number of years finishing his sets and replacing the lower condition ones with better examples. He had complete runs 1958, 1959, and 1960.

he kept his traders, and basically had a double set of 57s, with all the key cards. However, he was missing ONE card from either set of 57s

Sherm Lollar.

That was the only one needed, and it was just a few bucks to top off the 57. Go figure!

Yes, there is something weird about this card's availability (or lack thereof). As it happens, I need just three cards to finish off my EX-MT 1968 set, and wouldn't you know it -- the Lee May card is one of them!
