I started collecting autographs TTM in October 2002 and it's been awesome. I started a set at the end of 2002-03 UD Top Shelf and I finally finished it today after 5 years!

My friend from BC, Adam, told me that he got Paul Kariya for me for my set. He met Paul before a Vancouver game and managed to get his autograph!

There are 90 cards in the set and all of them are signed now:) I got most of them signed TTM but about 25 of them were signed inperson. I'd like to thank all the people who helped me get my set cards signed inperson. I wouldn't of done it without you people.

Here are the scans of all 90 cards: My scans of my set!

Is anyone else almost completed their set?

Congrtulations! Awesome news! I bet you we're looking forward to getting that Kariya! Are you going to leave it in a binder, or are you planning on framing it?

I'm working on an 91-92 Ultimate Original 6 set (100 cards+ 1 insert). I'm doing pretty well, a little over 80% of the cards are signed. Most of the ones I need are Bobby Hulls. There are 10 in the set and I need 7 of them signed by Hull. Make that 8, if I include the Hologram insert from the set. A few of the ones I need are deceased, so I'll have to look on the secondary market for those. Thankfully a large number of those were issued with an auto'd version for a sweepstakes, so they're out there. Click on my wantlist link in my signature if you're interested in seeing my progress.

thanks guys...

gregorium - Good luck with your set! I don't think I will be tackling another set lol. It took me 5 years to do the top shelf set, so I think thats it for me now. biggrin.gif

Well, if you change your mind, let us know!

Congratulations!
I saw a few of them, due to time constraints at work, but that is an awesome looking set to boot. The card design is very sharp. Just out of curiousity, is hockey the easiest sport to complete a set of autos?
