Love this thread. Makes me want to get off my butt and work on some of my 70's sets. I remember back around 1991 I had just purchased some new cleats for softball but after wearing them two times, I didn't like them so I gave them to a teammate. He remembered I had talked with him about my favorite set as a kid (The 1971 Topps set...which my Mom threw out. Yes kids, that really did happen to a lot of us). Anyway, he showed up the next day with a shoe box full of his 71 doubles. Still have them, so now I think I'll sort through them and start working on the whole set. Sounds like fun just talking about it!!
