I just finished my American Beauties set on the registry and updated all the scans last night. This set has been mentioned in several threads (which is where I learned about it) so I thought some of you might have an interest in seeing the set.

This was a fun set to put together. It's small (24 cards) and genaerally available, though condition sensitive. Mine is not the best set (it's third) but it's the only one with scans.
It took about 8 months to complete, with about half the cards purchased on ebay and the rest from raw submissions. Most of the higher grades were raw submissions.

CHEERS!!
Great set and I'm sure it was fun. Glad to see you spending some money on something besides FB. I suspect that we will be seeing each other this summer on that 61 FB set though.
What I wanted to ask was "How was your ability to pick up raw non-sport". Obviously your results were good but was it a great challenge and care to share any of your sources?

And yes, now that I've finished this I can really focus on 61 Football. I just sent in a submission that I'm hoping will close the gap a little.
well done. i have been picking these up as well. it is a fun little set with its low pop cards and can be frustrating just like the larger sets. you have the tougher ones in a good grade. ANKLES AWEIGH has to be the toughest card IMO. Now, with all three eights registered in sets and not much quality raw stuff to be found.
congrats again.

Because of Janet Jackson's boob popping out on Feb 1st we now have six more weeks of winter.

On the 61 FB, good luck on the submission. Some of those numbers are just plain tough. I am off work on some other hobbies and not collecting at the moment but that usually changes by the beginning of summer.
If have not updated for some time on that set but suspect that our current positions are roughly equal so it could prove to be an interesting fall. Am hoping to get that set into the "active" category this year to finish it or at least make a good run at it. Good luck on the submission. Maybe I can get to it this year and get a few more members of the "Fear the Fuzz" club (ha ha).
