One of my favorite sets, and when I went back and completed it, I was thrilled. Still hard to decide whether I love the '75 or '72 set better.

I didn't love the checkllist cards, I confess. You couldn't mark them -- although I did (replaced them all), and the team photo shows no one clearly. But I liked the idea of having a card to put on top of the team and that the manager was featured. If it had some team/manager stats on the back instead of the ad, it'd be even sweeter.

This is a set that I had once, think my exwife took it. The goal is to put this set together again. One day I will. My first set when I was 10. I was missing a few cards to complete and now to begin collecting again

-------------------------------

Trying to acquire one card for every for every set, insert, parralle, minor, euro, team issue, oddball etc sets produced for Hockey. Been an interesting project.

Just bought a George Brett RC today. I got my Nolan Ryan in the mail today. I am about 10 semi star and commons away. Three of those are in the mail thanks to TCDB. I love this Set and all 70s Topps Baseball.
