I would appreciate it much more if you posted pictures of each card, so that we can more follow your journey.

Just telling us that you got something is a bit of a "big deal, I got stuff today too" kind of thing. As long as you're going to tell us that you got it, show it to us.

Also, are all 792 cards "signable"? If I remember correctly, there are 6 checklist cards in this set, and they do not have pictures on them, so really there are only 786 cards in the set (or less) to get signed. Your total at the moment should be 264 / (amount that can get signed).

See, I just helped knock 6 cards off you want list.

You're welcome.

This comes across as a bit high and mighty to me.

Checklists are numbered and count, so do Team Leaders.

Also, I did post before but I can't do it from my phone and my laptop doesn't run like it used to.

For the team cards I would get Peter Uberoth to sign them since he was the commissioner. In the past I have see a lot of set collectors get Sy Berger to sign them.

I am working on a 57 set and thankful the checklists aren't numbered cards :)

I've gotten checklists signed but just by players on the checklist.

Try finding those pesky managers from the 1952 topps set, or umpires from 1955!

Thanks for the updates

I certainly don't mean to come across as high and mighty.

I see that leaders cards would be signed, I assume by the players pictured, but who would sign the checklist card? If it's any player listed on the card, then don't you need to get a card signed by every player in oder to have a complete set?

Ultimately, I'm just asking for pictures of your new pickups, instead of a list of what you are picking up. If that comes across as high and mighty, well sorry.

There is a turn back the clock card of Clemente. So you really can't have a complete signed set.

Try finding a 1957 Dodgers Sluggers card signed by Furillo, Dodgers, Campy and Snider...

Roberto Clemente Jr signed?

For my sets I have a key player from the checklist sign or someone interesting. Sy Berger was a popular checklist signature while he was living. My friend had key political figures from his set years sign the checklists. The possibilities are really open for it. Vera Clemente is a popular choice for for that TBTC issue. Really, saying it's incompletable because a specific card can't be signed is like saying the monster can't be completed because you'll likely never own a Wagner, Plank, or Doyle. You can collect to the extent you please.
