I quickly managed to whittle the set down from 49 to 2, and if I were less parsimonious, I'd be long done with it.:-) N54 also has some good info about Rocky, I think from Ted Z.Jimmy Suitcasehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02903045159916619990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3550073840562722051.post-62105437518249112012018-11-24T19:39:13.804-06:002018-11-24T19:39:13.804-06:00Even if you can't complete the set, I hope you...Even if you can't complete the set, I hope you're able to find and enjoy most of them. The nature of collectors like us is we have to <i>complete</i> things-whether it's a team, player, or set collection. That mental block is hard enough for me to overcome when I seek out singles of 1959 Topps, 1961 Golden Press, or 1964 Topps Giants..but now I'm flirting with 1933 Goudey!

I'm contemplating building the 1970's Kellogg's set in NM+ condition, which is a set that I'd probably never complete.Fujihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00749100861086458307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3550073840562722051.post-71443390890410509192018-11-20T19:07:30.372-06:002018-11-20T19:07:30.372-06:00I may have to track one of these down.
