Finally the pressure is off as I finally came up with the final card to my 59 Topps master set.It was a great journey even though the sets condition can be improved quite a bit however I am very happy with it as a majority of the cards came from my raw set.I do plan on upgrading any card that did not achieve at least a 6 and a few of my Star cards that did not achieve a 7 then I will retire it no matter where it stands.This set "Childhood Memories" was truly that.During the years I have gone through many 59 Topps probably enough to build 2 or 3 full raw sets until I was satisfied.
I want to thank the folks on the 59 Topps thread who helped me achieve my goal and encouraged me.
Thanks again 59er Tony.

My daughter was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at the age of 2 (2003). My son was diagnosed with Type 1 when he was 17 on December 31, 2009. We were stunned that another child of ours had been diagnosed. Please, if you don't have a favorite charity, consider giving to the JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation)

I would still like to pick up the rest of the grey or white back versions for #s 199 to 286 that I still lack however that may wait for a while.I would like to start tinkering around with 75 minis and 84 Donruss more afforadable at this point but who knows as it seems I keep just jumping back to that 59 set and doing something with it.Time and money will tell.
Thanks to all of you great folks!!!

good luck upgrading
collecting RAW Topps baseball cards 1952 Highs to 1972. looking for collector grade (somewhere between psa 4-7 condition). let me know what you have, I'll take it, I want to finish sets, I must have something you can use for trade.
looking for Topps 71-72 hi's-62-53-54-55-59, I have these sets started
<< <i>Congrats....especially on the Hanebrink No Trade- did you resubmit the one you had? A 6 on that one is fantastic!!! >>
Actually I did resubmit as you suggested however it still did not pass.A few weeks ago I found a raw one exmt list at BIN for $40 with an opening of $20 so I gambled and BIN knowing that there have only been a scarce few ever listed of this card.It all worked out great as you can see.With that being said I would never consider selling that card in PSA 6 for even double that amount.
To this day I still do not know or see any significant evidence of being a miscut non holdered on my original Hanebrink and the card is much nicer than the graded one,"but hey they are the experts not me"I still may resubmit again at a future date.
