This has been a huge year for me as I completed the 1954 Red Heart set (finished with a generous gift from a board member) and my 1964 topps set.
Even better, I completed my dream set: 1953 topps. The last card I needed was Mays and I bought it from a dealer friend at a great discount. Still, $1,100 is the most I have ever paid for a card by far. I had a couple opportunities for side jobs and my wife was encouraging of me getting at as she understands it was probably now or never. Love this thread and happy hunting

Big time congrats on the Mays and completing 53. I can’t wait to get to that set someday.

Answer: Gene Conley
Question: What was the last card I needed to complete the 56 Topps set - the first 50s set I’ve ever finished? I couldn’t be happier. |
