Very impressive Bubbyjoe...there was a lot of work and sweat putting that together.

Finished two sets in one day, and also did something hard to do...get a good deal on a GM auction. Settled a little obviously on the OC again, but for a SP team card, all good to me.

Feels very satisfying building two EX and better 66 Topps sets, and just like the 70 set, used the opportunity to upgrade my original.

Very nice John. Thankyou nothing better than building sets!

Just completed my 1963 Bazooka All-Time Greats Silver set (6.95 average). Yay, me!

My '72 Topps midgrade effort is at roughly a little less than half, I think at 330 some cards. I will admit to having lost focus big time thus far in '22 with shiny objects like the vintage $5 and $10 boxes down at the LCS. I need to hunker down and work on both '72 and '67 commons for the rest of the year, but it hasn't happened so far...

Congrats on the Bazooka set Bob

Impressive collections!!! Spent the last half hour going through the thread. In the past, I thought about collecting complete sets, but would never have the funds to cover as many years as with collecting just one team.

I've been a team set collector for about 10 years, but 5 years seriously with vintage. I've essentially held off on buying ultra modern with the SP/SSPs, waiting for prices to settle and the hype to subside so still missing most over the past 5-7 years. Happy to share my progress/stats thus far:

Topps NY Yankees Team Sets

Decade Total Have Need %
Fifties 170/203 = 83.74%
Sixties 317/369 = 85.91%
Seventies 330/331 = 99.70%
Eighties 426/426 = 100.00%
Nineties 333/334 = 99.70%
Naughts 487/489 = 99.59%
Tens 510/566 = 90.11%
Twenties 41/144 = 28.47%

The Fifties
1952 - 15/29
1953 - 16/21
1954 - 14/16
1955 - 13/14
1956 - 20/24
1957 - 26/28
1958 - 30/33
1959 - 36/38

The Sixties
1960 - 34/36
1961 - 33/48
1962 - 52/59
1963 - 36/43
1964 - 25/29
1965 - 30/37

Thanks, Al! I was seriously beginning to doubt that I would finish it.
