one word:

WOW!

KOBEcollector · October 21, 2006 10:57AM

Very Very Nice !!

I was 7 years old in 76 and it was my first year of buying cards

I can still remember flipping with friend back then. Great year cards to flip because of the colored border on the bottom

Am i the only one here who flipped cards when they were younger ?

Thanks guys !

Stoney,
Corners look mint to the naked eye, One is only very slightly touched under a loupe, A definite near mint - mint card. Most of the set is this way, I paid a little more than I probably should have but it is one of the nicer raw sets I have seen in a while.

If you think my Dick Pole is nice you should see my Rusty Kuntz.

I think you'll have to buy me dinner first.

Edited to say: After this post, my wife officially thinks we're goobers.

Hey, I accidentally deleted that one from my photobuckett account! I miss those guys

Thanks!

ctsoxfan · October 21, 2006 12:27PM

That set looks quite nice, TB!

bobbybakeriv · October 21, 2006 12:32PM

Completely Awesome! Nice work.

HoofHearted · October 21, 2006 12:36PM

WoW. This is the first time I've had a chance to see a lot of these cards. The cards I've seen most often, the Brett, Smalley, Ryan, Rose, etc., took on a new meaning seeing them in the context of the rest of the set.

Congrats and thanks for taking the time to share your cards!

XanaduNow · October 21, 2006 12:54PM

Holy crapballs.

They look like they were plucked straight from packs and into the sheets. Outstanding set T-Bank.

How about Oscar's fro below? That's 70's!

Nice set TB!

Love the 76's, the year I was born!

tennesseebanker · October 21, 2006 8:56PM

Rbdjr, What do you know about 76 Topps ?

Seriously thanks, It means a lot coming from "The Man"

tennesseebanker · October 21, 2006 9:04PM

Zef, You were born the same year my wife was. Which is how I justified to her buying the set, "But Honey, it was the year you were born".

julen23 · October 21, 2006 10:55PM

where did you pick this set up from, locally or internet?

very nice scans.

Julen

ArchStanton · October 22, 2006 1:17AM

Holy cow. You have some real lookers there. The Eck and Brett are two VERY tough cards. Yours look great.

julen23 · October 22, 2006 3:41AM

IMHO that ryan could fetch a premium, either raw or psa'd.

finish thought...

the ryan is the most desirable card from that collection of NM/MT cardboard.

Man that is sweet!!

Estil · October 22, 2006 5:25AM

Wow, makes me wonder if I should do 1970s sets again. I had 1976-79 Topps a few years back but sold them to pay off some of my student loan. It's a shame too, cuz those 1978 and 1979 sets were gorgeous.

But that's okay, 1980 is my birth year anyway, hence why my Topps run is currently 1980-2004.
