Welcome to set collecting. My strategy has been to buy some lots and then start filling in. I'm slowly finishing Topps BB sets back to 1961.
As far as raw or graded, I'm more concerned with the price and how the card looks. If I buy a graded card, I photo copy it in color and put the copy in my binder.
I work on one set at a time unless a deal pops up. I'm 9 cards short of a 1962 Topps BB set and will then start working on a 1963 set.
Good luck with whatever set you choose and have fun!
