started the 53 set in psa 5 or better in October of last year.. All need to have good centering appeal with minimal chipping on the black or red edge..

Currently sitting at 215/271 78.47% with the mantle mays paige and robinson as the major roadblocks.. just waiting for the right ones on those and most tht pop up are either low grade or too nice for what I want to pay.. 5.56 overall grade

I am stuck on 500/792 with my 1972 Topps baseball set. I have 11 coming from COMC. But they won’t get delivered until November at this point.

I have some Civil War books that I ordered a while ago that are going to be here this month. So I gotta pay for them first. Civil War history is my other hobby. Sometimes very expensive, especially collecting 1st editions.

Cheers,

Default 1977 Topps completed
Just purchased the final four cards this past weekend to complete my 1977 Topps Baseball set. They should arrive in a couple of days and I am looking forward to putting them in the binder and wrapping up this project. Not an earth-shaking accomplishment, but I am pumped because this was one of the sets I collected as a kid and it certainly holds some great memories.

I finished that set just a couple of months ago. It was a fun run for me for sure.

Congrats!! 1977 Topps is one of those highly underappreciated sets, most likely due to the overproduced era it was released in. But, man, the design works beautifully, there's a ton of great action shots (the Dave Kingman is one of this Mets fan's all time favorite cards), and the All Star banner adds a wonderful prestige to the cards featuring it. We all hoarded those guys like crazy! Great stuff!!!

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

Thanks. The all-star banner cards are great. Those were the ones we chased as a kid.

Finished my 1951 Topps Redback set today when the Boston variation of Tommy Holmes came in the mail from Batters Box. Paid a bit more than I wanted to but had been looking hard for the card for most of 2021.

Next focus card is 1953 Bowman Black and White #39 Casey Stengel to finish that set
