Completing any set is a great accomplishment. Best of luck in continuing the upgrading!

Good luck with the "neverending quest"!
Congrats Art !
That's a large football set at 219 cards,
and that's an OUTSTANDING GPA for a 1960's set of 8.42 WOW !
You'll be safe at # 1 until The Fuzz comes gunning for you.

First of all, I did realize we were now taking 7's. Maybe there is a little room to squeeze through to the top. I didn't like 68's (or 69's for that matter) when they came out. I haven't warmed up much since then. I don't have a single 68 in a slab nor a raw 68 that is worth sending in, even under the new rules.
If I continue to collect for several more years, then maybe, just maybe, I will get to the 68's. But don't hold your breath. You'll probably see me on those Philly's long before then. This is your head start.
Seriously, conrats Art on a great set.

PS. Is it your turn to win the 66's this year or mine?
It shall go down in the FB Card Set HOF.
Email sent! Jeremy
First off, congratulations!
Second, I once started building this set and gave up since I was spread so thin over so many projects, so I have a lot of respect for you completing this set. I know it isn't an easy one to complete.

Nice set, good job.

Great job on a tuff set. It's nice to know a couple of my old cards finally made it into someone's number one set. Good luck on your other sets... except for (cough) the certain years that you see my name in the mix too.
Hey Fuzz,
Didn't we all agree at the last meeting that it was my turn on the 66's. Oh that's right you were on vacation... I'll have Davalillo forward you the memo. He'll carbon copy Peachfuzz on the Philly sets too.
..... now if I could just find all those Mint 9's I had laying around here somewhere.

Great job!! Those last few cards can be a bear to get. I'm stuck on my 72 FB missing like 4 or 5.

I was gone this weekend so I am late in saying WOW!
SUPER TUFF set here folks. I think many collectors fail to realize how hard it is to build some of these FB issues.
220 cards, no problem? Go for it. Try the 55 Bowman FB set, only 160 cards.
I would wager that you could build most baseball sets before you would get one of these finished.
ITS TUFF!
Congrats ART!!!
Loves me some shiny!
