Default My First Ever Master Set Is Now Complete - 1997 Metal Universe

I have never attempted to complete a full master set of any newer set. Just too much stuff to track down with inserts and all. But I finally did it for one

1997 Fleer Metal Universe baseball

It's a bizarre set, but it was one my son really got into so we collected it together. After finishing the base set I found we had a good start on a lot of the inserts, so I got busy.

That was 18 years ago!

Just yesterday I got the last insert card - Mother Lode Jeff Bagwell

So now I have all of:

Base Set
Blast Furnace
Magnetic Field
Mining for Gold
Mother Lode
Platinum Portraits
Titanium
Emerald Autographs
Promotional Card

Some of them were not cheap. The Mother Lode cards were the toughest to track down. Even more so than the autographs.

I'm sure I put in a lot more money than I could ever hope to get out of it, but it was a fun project to do with and for my son. He remembers the set fondly, so it will stay with him when I'm gone anyway.
