After a fairly large purchase yesterday, I am now only 11 cards away from completing '52 Bowman. Strangely, I am not in a hurry. Loving these cards!

I am now just waiting for the arrival of the Larsen and I will be done. I never thought I would be done before the end of this year. Been working on this set for two or three years and assumed it would take me at least five.

I walked into a local card shop today and to my surprise there are several 61 Topps cards in the case. The cards I picked up are nice mid grade +. I got 4 of the All-Star cards, a nice Billy Williams, Ron Santo, and Hank Aaron card. Getting closer, only 140 cards to go.

[SteveWhite]

Just picked up these 1966 Topps from Greg Morris Cards on an eBay auction.

Need 29 to finish the set and just nine high numbers.

[bks14sr]

Completed my 52 Topps low number set today. Now the hunt get slow and painful, the highs, including Mantle, Robinson, and Mathews.

Whole set progress: 326/407

[55koufax]

I am currently trying to complete these great sets with 100% PSA graded slabs. PM me if you have any to sell.

1. 1963 Topps Baseball. Approx. 50% complete. Want to GPA @ 7.50+
2. 1972 Topps Baseball. Approx. 60% complete. Want to GPA 8.50+
2. 1975 Topps Baseball. 95% complete. GPA 8.57
3. 1979 Topps Baseball. 85% complete. GPA 9.31
4. 1980 Topps Baseball. Approx. 50% complete. Want to GPA 9.50+
5. 1989 Upper Deck Baseball. Approx. 40% complete. Want to GPA 10.00
6. 1959 Topps FB. 98.3% complete. GPA 8.26
7. 1979 Topps FB. 82% complete. GPA 9.75

I also need one 1955 Topps All-American in PSA 8.5 or 9 to complete my 4th set of AA's. Biggie Munn # 92. That said, I may have to settle for an 8, as I have 2 of the 3 in grade 9 that exist and the only 8.5 that exists in my #1,2,3 sets. If you have the only other Biggie in 9 or even a quality 8, please PM me.

Not sure what your condition requirements are, but I've got at least 100 '65s in G-VG condition that you can have for the cost of shipping. Also, in an earlier post you said you were thinking about starting 1963 Fleer. I just finished my signed 1963 Fleer set (no Clemente, because who are we kidding here), so I have some mid grade and higher commons from that set.

My set progress:

1956, 1970-1979 - complete
1955 - 185/206 (89%)
1960 - 515/572 (90%)
1965 - 518/598 (87%)
1968 - 596/598 (99.7%)

[Jayworld]

Working on the following sets:

1974 Topps baseball 570/660 (this is my second time around for this set)
1968 Topps football 205/219 (unfortunately one of the 14 I'm still missing is the elusive first series checklist card...I refuse to pay over $15 for a checklist, and they are going for $50 and up)
1951 Bowman football 91/144 (slowly but surely on this one, and I have the major star cards so far...)
