It most definitely makes it more doable to build graded sets that you can actually pull out and enjoy. Once you get to the early 70s set sizes rose rapidly to 528 card that became the topps football set size standard thereafter for quite a while.

Jeff, that's the truth! Those 60s baseball sets are endless! I have zero desire to ever do one of those again. To each his own, but 70s Topps football holds next to no appeal for me. A couple of designs are ok, but like you said the sets get larger, and I detest the airbrushing of the logos! Someday if I am fortunate enough to have the 60s sets I want, I may venture into the 50s for a couple of Bowman sets.
