Today I picked up the last card to my 1963 Topps Set, and the last card to complete all the 60s sets, 1960 -1969. It's been quite a journey...I've complete sets...sold, traded...rebuilt...re-committed...and after a little over 10 years from getting back into the hobby it's done. I made a post on 3/16/14 here on net54 when I completed all the 70s sets...last card being 1972 Topps Rod Carew In Action card from a member here. Didn't think a Mantle would be my last card for the 60s, but the cards/deals decided...here is my last card -
I feel really accomplished today...can't wait for it to arrive and be official. Still awaiting about 8 cards (thanks COMC!!! Haha) and they will be here soon enough.
Looking to attack the 50s next. I am sitting on 980/2954...or 33.2%. I'd be higher but I recently traded all my 59's to my brother as he attacks that set...so it will increase here soon...then SLOW down as I attack 52/53. Can't wait for the next journey!
Thanks to many members here for all the help along the way. Whether it was picking up some key cards, a nice lot, or LOTS of knowledge I couldn't have done it withouth net54...lots of memories and learnings...
