Default Sets

I have a similar story to TonyO, started collecting serious in 1972, but had some from earlier years.
I didn't realize that I had no full sets from the early seventies, I had thousands of cards, but I guess a few stragglers.
I've since finished most of them, and gone back to 1953 with my quest for Topps sets.
Complete:
1953
1954
1955
1959
1960
1962
1965
1970
1972
1973
1974
1977
1978
1979
1980

Many of the missing sets above, I need just a handful or less of cards (1957, 1958, 1964,1969, 1971, 1975, 1976)
I'm auditing all of my sets now since I recently bought a couple singles that I already had, and discovered holes in my binder for cards that I thought I owned.
My record keeping has been a little slack over the years I guess.

I think I need just 258 cards to complete the 1953-1980 Topps run, but that number could go up or down depending on my audit.
It's a lot of high number commons in the 60's

I want to get 9 cards off my list before the end of the year if possible. Something about needing less than 250 seems important (it's not)
I actually collect prewar cards with much greater passion, but I really want to finish the Topps run too!!

I got back into collecting baseball cards in 1975. I was one of the lucky one whose mom didn't throw my cards collected as a kid into the trash.

I've finished these sets.

1948 Bowman
All Topps sets from 1952 to 1962 except 1955 which for some reason
I've never wanted to start.
1959 Fleer
1963 Fleer
1960 Leaf
Complete run of Red Man tobacco from 1952 to 1955
Post Cereal from 1961 to 1963

I'm probably going to sale most in the next year and take my wife on that big vacation trip she's always wanted to take while we are both in good enough health to do it.

1960 Topps
1961 Topps
1966 Topps
1970 - 2012 Topps

Currently working on the 1954 Red Heart (only missing Mantle).

Next I'm thinking about 1956 or 1965 Topps baseball sets. After recently finishing the 1961 set, I need a break from peeling off the big $$ for Joe Schmoe's high# cards.

I completed the 1965 Topps set earlier this year. I had been missing only the Joe Nossek card for two years, and finally got one.

I've also completed the T206 to 522 cards, which is as far as I can go.

I've completed 1952 Bowman and 1934 Gold Medal Foods (not a huge set, but I like it). Currently about halfway through a 1956 Topps set.
