Great accomplishment!

Also, like was already asked, what was that last card that you needed?

I assume, based on your post it wasn't Mick or Mathews?

Was it Campanella?

Edit: I change my guess to Bartirome

After 38 years of looking, I finally finished my 1963 Post Cereal Baseball set. I bought a lot of 1963 cards on ebay and #196 Frank Thomas was among them.

Plenty that I am working on, main one is 52 topps, need 311 Mantle, 312 Robinson, 332 Bartirome and 407 Mathews. Need some luck lol. Recently completed PSA9+ 1978, just keep watching values slide on my 9s.

Finished off a 1963 topps set. (Last card was #173 Bombers Best) Only been needing a couple of cards for a while just kept having the second best bids on ones I liked. I’m not putting this one down yet though. Going to keep upgrading. Probably will end up with close to a second set down the road. Already have around 400 cards of it.

I'm awaiting the arrival of Sandy Koufax (an upgrade of my card with a piece missing) and a Brooks Robinson RC (both PSA 6) to put me within 2 (#284 Zimmer and #286 Richardson) of completing my 1957 set. If anyone has either of those cards in decent shape to trade, for the love of God please check out my bucket.

I just purchased the last 4 cards to finish off the 1971 Topps high #s. Not as tough as the ‘72 highs, but pretty darn close. I have a few other ‘71s so that puts me a little over 15% complete. I build sets one series at a time so now on to series 5!

With Bob G Miller in the house I'm now just a Twins Team card from finishing my 1962 set. It's been a grind.

My 1970 Topps Basketball set is now complete. Or will be when my last (Leroy Ellis) card arrives. It was returned to sender (unknown recipient/no forwarding address!?!?) for some odd reason...the eBay seller had the correct address (I've lived here for 35 years). The seller reached out to me and is resending and refused to let me help with the postage. I'll be glad to put that one to bed.
