Hi Guys, Now that my 1972 Topps cards are starting to sell - I'm ready for the new hunt. I've decided to collect a PSA graded 6 NQ and 7 NQ 1956 Topps set. If anyone have a stack of cards collecting dust that they want to sell, email me at nbdowney@msn.com anytime. I am going to try to stick to a strict budget (as I did when buying the 1972 Topps cards). I would love to enter the 1956 Topps race with a big bang. I look forward to any emails and/or suggestions on the great looking vintage set. Neil

    Good luck on this new adventure. I hope to go down the 56 path within a few years. Right now, I'm concentrating my efforts on the 55 set in similar condition, as well as some hockey sets. I've always liked the mid 50's topps sets 53-57 - just classic...

    Good luck Neil,

    You may want to look for "high grade" 56's at card shows. I think that PSA 6's are quite attainable still to find raw.

    Neil,

    I can tell you that easily the 56's I saw in Setbuilders books at the Boston Show over the weekend would 6. I would suggest visiting the Fort Washington Show in December to look for good raw cards also. Some of these cards will also 7 & occassionally 8 if you are discriminating.

    Best of Luck in your new endeavor.

    If you are doing it in 6, you can probably do it without driving yourself insane. If you are doing it in 7, expect to spend a lot of money on the last few commons.

    I rarely find any NM vintage at shows, but EXMT seems more possible.
