I have spent the last month aggressively searching for upgrades to my 1972 Topps Football set, and today I have officially become the number one All-Time finest. Thanks to everyone who has helped me locate the cards that I needed.

All-Time Finest

My set's 8.48 rating

I will continue to upgrade this set, so please PM or email me if you have a card or two that I need.

Thanks again,

Carlos

Congrats. At least I can dream of a set that nice.

That makes two 2002 Award winners who will bow in 2003.

Kevin Stonegate has also quickly surpassed Davalillo's 2002 54 Bowman FB set.

Any others?

Great job Carlos. Keep us posted on your 85 set also.

mcdee2 · January 31, 2003 6:28AM

congrats.. you should of course be very proud.

Vargha · January 31, 2003 6:36AM

A belated congrats. Nice job.

carkim · February 1, 2003 5:32AM

Fabfrank,

The '85 set is about 71% complete and has over 100 PSA 9's listed. But you should also take a look at Mike's 85 Football Set. "Metal Mike" has some very nice PSA 10 cards in his set.

I don't care what year you are talking about, those BLACK boarders are tuff!!!

Carlos

Carlos,
Great job on your 72 set, I am highly jealous!

Also, thanks for the kind words, the 85 set and those black borders have been VERY tough so far, as you know. I've been very, very lucky getting as many 10's as I have gotten.

Mike

Fabfrank · February 4, 2003 12:11PM

Carlos and Mike- Great job! I am really jealous. After I finish my 71 baseball and my SP Authentic football sets, 89 Score and 85 Topps football are in my sights. Email me when you get a dupe 9's for sale. I could use some of the stars and semi-stars.
Carlos- Keep me posted on your progress too.
