Official 1977 Topps Mexican FB Set Thread

in PSA Set Registry Forum
Just figured this might be an interesting thread for a very overlooked and very difficult set. Any thoughts? Anyone want to share?

I've posted a website with plenty of info at: www.toppsmexican.com.

I'm currently working on two graded sets. One is PSA 8 or better (no qualifiers) and one in PSA whatever. I finished my raw set about last Summer.

I'm sure that there are some out there that love this set, so don't be bashful... It isn't the worst thing in the world to admit to enjoying.

    #5 Registry 1977 Topps Mexican Football set

    I see the #5 set is on ebay right now. It has the Payton and Largent. 1/2 a psa graded set
    is a good start. This set is very hard. I see the 1st 8.5 was graded friday and it was
    a Bradshaw. Looks like I will have to send a few in for review to test the waters.
    Always looking for 1977 topps Mexican Football. Packs and boxes. Need cards #21 and #404 bad $.

    C'mon Don, share some of your gems. I'd love to see that Sowells and what does a NM-MT Wilbur Jackson actually look like? image

    What does a guy do after he completes this set? He tries to do it again!!!

    I have decided to go for another raw set, which is 75% complete already.

    If you have some of these available, send me an email. Looking for any condition raw and PSA.

    Thanks,

    I wouldn't call myself a pricing expert on this set as I've only been collecting it for just over a year....

    I generally use Scott's price guide at toppsmexican.com, I would say use 50% of his NrMt price, therefore $30 for a raw mid-grade Webster would be fair in my opinion. But this set attracts alot of attention from Steeler & Cowboy collectors out there, plus the fact it is his rookie card.....you may have to pay a bit more for it.

    Hey folks, all this talk about Mexicans motivated me to put of a huge lot of really nice raw Mexicans on Ebay that we had laying around. It has lots of dupes but also lots of stars and semi stars. All pack fresh from packs we opened. If you are looking for graded we have those in our ebay store as some of you already know image Always willing to make some deals.

    Here is the ebay listing item #390035293486.

    Thanks - Robert

    Scott whats the deal with the Mike Webster RC? Its not listed in SMR at all. I had a PSA 7 and sold it for 200, is it a SP, I haven't seen another one since.
    Currently completing the following registry sets: Cardinal HOF's, 1961 Pittsburgh Pirates Team, 1972 Pittsburgh Pirates Team, 1980 Pittsburgh Pirates Team, Bill Mazeroski Master & Basic Sets, Roberto Clemente Master & Basic Sets, Willie Stargell Master & Basic Sets and Terry Bradshaw Basic Set

    Webster just seems to sell well as it is a HOF RC. Look at the regular '77 Topps RC. The card is not shortprinted in the Mexican set, but there are active buyers for several teams such as Cowboys, Steelers and Redskins. Hence some of the cards tend to sell for higher premiums than one would expect.

    I recently finished my Cowboys team set. I've got some beaters in there, especially the White and Herrera but I am happy to have the team set complete.
