Printable version of Entry

I've focused on my 1972 Topps set since my last post. I've picked up a few semi-high and high numbers. I think I'm around 64% completion of the set now. Although many cards are EX or better I'm going to have a lot of VG as well. I'm ok with that for now, considering this is a tough set. Anyway, I believe part of the fun will be coming back later and trying to upgrade it .

I've made other advancements in my goals for 2009. I recently purchased two more Rondo auto's. An 06-07 Trilogy rookie auto and an 06-07 Finest refractor rookie auto. I like these two cards but I'm really wanting a Sweet Shot rookie auto and the Press Pass blue and red rookie auto's. Maybe even an SPX rookie auto before I complete my goal.

I need only one HOF auto before I complete my five HOF'er auto goals. I picked up a Billy Williams 1995 Jimmy Dean auto and a Jim "Catfish" Hunter 1995 Jimmy Dean auto. I think these cards are underrated. They're sort of tough to come by and when they do so in auction style, they go for bargain prices. If you're someone who focuses on "on-card" autos you should look for these cards too. There are three cards in the set, Al Kaline is the one I don't have. But, I already have an Al Kaline auto in my Sweet Spot Classics auto set.

Time to go find some cards to sell/trade so I can continue!
