Starting Something You Can't Finish

Oh my!!!
I just looked at the 57 set. NO WAY will we attempt that!!! LOADED with HoF rookies and big name rookies at that.

I’d recommend putting a set on the back burner first. It helps to delete all your eBay searches or any other searches you use so you can take a real break from seeing the cards for a while. You mentioned the high priced star player cards, but my experience has been chasing all the commons can drain enthusiasm as well. The 48 Leaf is an example of both - the rare high numbers are the toughest, but they were mostly college players at the time and from what I recall except for Bednarick and Nomellini, they didn’t have significant pro careers and my main interest is NFL history, so the set isn’t a great match for me - still keeping it on the back burner though.

There's a good lot on the BST board right now for 57 Topps football.

Thanks for the heads up! Should prolly look in there more often

I've pretty much given up on my Heisman auto collection. Kinnick is just too cost prohibitive.

Not to mention the checklist and Zeke Bratkowski card.

I'm that way with the 26 Spalding and 35 Chicle set. Been close but never quite done.
