Here are some of my pics of the HVC's

The Buchanan and Westmoreland were the hardest 2 cards for me for the set to find in PSA 7. I only have one card with a qualifier, unfortunately its the Namath. I actually picked up that card 8 years ago and by the time I was putting the set together that card shot up in price so I haven't got my 7 yet.

Jeff, thank you for the advice. Good tips on the graded vs raw. I totally agree with you and for the same reasons. Plus, this set looks good on it's own, slabbed or not. Not looking forward to the centering issues tho, I'm OCD...I'm going to have to learn to breathe..lol ...........Troy, those pics are awesome! Those cards really pop. Thanks for sharing. The 8 Namath, even with the centering issue, presents well. Looks like it came right out of the pack!

The complete set all graded was super heavy to tote around. I kept thinking of the many hundreds of bucks I spent grading them when many came back less than what I though they would grade. Looking over my old grading lists I spent over 900 dollars grading raw cards. I feel like I wasted that money but hind sights 20/20. I agree with raw sets now. I will never again get caught up in the graded world unless they are commonly prone to be reprinted. The 65 set is a beautiful set just wish NFC was included but it was not

I would like to add a Biletnikoff to these.
