1972 Topps set
I am debating whether or not to try to put together the 1972 Topps set. It's been my favorite ever since I was an 8 year old kid buying packs. The big question for me is, if you're not too concerned about condition, how much of a headache are the high numbers? I've been working on the 1967 baseball set for a long time, and the high numbers in that set are the reason I'm asking.
I look forward to hearing your responses. Matt

It won't be as big of a headache as the 67's that's for sure. I built my set, which I no longer own, in exmnt. It wasn't as hard as the 71s even. Just be patient.

Matt: Common '72 football high numbers in collector grade should be available for around $7-$10 each, but you have to keep on the lookout for them. There are WAY more '67 Topps baseball high numbers out there than there are '72 Topps football high numbers.
If it has been your favorite set since you were eight years old, you HAVE to go for it! Larry

Dennis and Larry,
Thanks for the info. And you're right Larry, I have to go for it! I've recently picked up some Steelers. I'm going to get my checklist together and get to work! I will post my progress on here. I'm hoping for a fun ride.

if condition isn't a huge factor should be reasonable. You can get the first 263 cards in Ex condition for low cost i'd assume with exceptions for Staubach, and a few others my opinion. currently working on this set myself. My budget is small so it's taking me some time to get Ex and better high numbers.
Good luck with it!

I'm in the same boat. Small budget, and also working on 1967 baseball. Good luck to you too.

Oh no you were talking about 1972 football and I was talking baseball. I need to read more carefully. Sorry about that.
