    Congratulations, Kurt!

    It is shocking the number of 1975 Topps set collectors that are so far along and so close to complete. A Hurculean effort to get so many cards in high grade. Congratulations to all.
    I am actively buying MIKE SCHMIDT gem mint baseball cards. Also looking for any 19th century cabinets of Philadephia Nationals. Please PM with additional details.

    Love and money. The competition is quite fierce for the low pop. 9's. I have decided to back out of that fray for the time being.

    I just saw that Kurt added 5 more 10s to his set bringing his total to 22. That had the incremental effect of bumping his GPA to 9.01. But the wow factor of his set grows with each addition. Too bad if he adds any more 9s, his GPA will go down.

    Steve -- I wish I did. I'd offer them to you first for sure.

    Check him out now. A solid #1 with a GPA above 9.0 . . . sweet!

    Still looking for 75's in PSA 8.
    I'm a poor student so can't afford those high grades, but am enjoying slowly putting together this set from the year of my birth.
    Anyone out there with 8's they are looking to move, PM me.
    thanks,
    John

    Wow, I was wondering when he'd plug that #228 slot. I didn't really think it would be with a 10, but a 9 would almost be too pedestrian for that set.

    That is a sweet set !!!! I love it when one card in his set is worth 3 times as much as my whole set.

    Last listing I saw said he was #4? Kurt is now #1 with a GPA of 9.06 !!
    Nice job.

    Man this set just sums up my whole childhood. I was 10 when it came out and would buy the mini's after little leaugue games at the concession stand. What an awesome GPA!

    Awesome. I've met Frank (former #1) before - great guy, awesome collector of cards! ... I wonder how this'll heat up the race for the 9s and 10s that the 2 don't already have!!
  • VarghaVargha Posts: 2,392 ✭✭
    I did notice that he has seven PSA 8's in the set. That is shameful.
  • WabittwaxWabittwax Posts: 1,984 ✭✭✭
    I am really surprised to see somebody pass Frank. That is an amazing accomplishment. I just won this lot on Ebay. Hopefully I can help Frank regain his throne if I get anything that he needs.
