Paul SThe only have two complete sets of cards, and I bought them both that way. One is the 59 Fleer Ted Williams and the other a Kellogg's 3D (not sure the exact year, it's somewhere around here -- 70 or 72 maybe.)The Williams I got through one of the trade mags, i.e., like Trader Speaks. Someone just had sets of them for sale, and really really cheap. The Kellogg's I mailed away for.
I have never been a completist, just don't compelled for some reason, but I am very close on several sets, such Topps '58, 59, 62, and most of the rest of the 60's as well. And not quite as close on earlier sets of Topps and Bowman. I am not counting variations and error cards that were corrected. But the vast majority of HOFers and stars are already in place, as well as lots of commons. I am kind of surprised at this really, especially the earlier ones. I just picked them up often when I could.
