Nice Koufax. Congrats on completing your set. Going for either the 61 or 65 sets will be fun. I completed the 61 set last year. I will hopefully finish the 65 set by the end of this year. Good luck and have fun!

Congrats on completing the 1966 set. It is the first set from my childhood collection - 7 years old when my grandfather started buying cards for my brother and I. We never saw high numbers, so I had to finish those long ago when I found the hobby.

I've replaced a handful of cards that I played with as a kid (making roads on the living room floor among other games) - but there are still some well worn cards in my collection. 1966 Topps will always hold a special place in my heart.

Slowly I've been working on my last Bowman set - 1949.
I have been tackling it series by series and with today's mail with Vic Wertz and Terry Moore I just finished series 5 of the 7 total. About 50 cards left to go.
Series six should be okay, but Series 7 is a monster. Despite being smaller than the other series (24 cards instead of 36) it includes the rookie cards of Satchell Paige, Duke Snider and Larry Doby along with Bob Lemon.

Looking to start a '76 set to finish my set run from '74-'23. Does anyone have a nice starter set of 500+ different cards in NMMT they'd be willing to sell me?

I am at 99% on '63 Topps baseball, 89% on '72 Topps baseball, 70% on '77 Topps baseball, and 65% on '80 Topps baseball. All PSA high grade slabs.

Also, I am 95% on '89 Score Fb in all PSA 10.

I like challenges.

My HUUUGE white whale arrived today. 1971 Kellogg's Roberto Clemente.
Not only a great card on its own, but it not only completed my 1971 Kelloggs set, it completes my full Kelloggs complete set run from 1970-1983. Fifteen complete sets crack free.

That is impressive! Some of the 89 Score football are difficult to find in a 10. You’re going to have some great sets when they are completed.

I’ve completed my 1965 Topps baseball set. The last cards should arrive soon. My first pack of baseball cards to ever open was from 1965, now I have a complete set.
