This is cheating cause it's hoops, but it goes with my '50s baseball run (so it's ok since I mentioned baseball too)

Got a 196/198 partial to complete my '81-'82 basketball set. Now all I need is the rest of the '88 Fleer (other than Jordan base and Rodman) and a few '89 Fleer commons to complete an '80s basketball run.

Maybe after that's done, I'll do some work on the missing '60 to '85 baseball sets and singles. But that's a very long term project

Just got the last card to complete my 1970 Kellogg's set.

Took me about 10 months. Got 74 cards in the first 4 months then took 6 months for the last 2.

I love 1970 Kelloggs baseball and football. What's your take on the plastic splitting and cracking? I have a bunch of them I bought in the 1970s that have been stored absolutely flat for 40+ years and they show no signs of it but I am having a harder and harder time finding uncracked cards.

Yea, finding uncracked cards is tough and getting tougher.

Storing them flat is the best.

Some of mine were curled when I got them. Was careful not to flatten them too much at once. Not sure if that helps.
