After fighting the urge for a couple of years, I finally gave in and began the 1972 Topps set yesterday by purchasing an 80-card lot for peanuts. I know this journey will be both fun and frustrating. As with other sets, I plan to build a series at a time. Due to the infamous high numbers in this set, I am going to implement an additional strategy of buying 3 or 4 hi's per month to lessen the shock once I get to the last series. I plan to build the set in VG condition so, hopefully, it will be more manageable. Centering is not a huge issue to me as long as the card is approx. 80/20. I am looking forward to this and will update periodically. I would love to hear advice from others that have tackled this monster.
