Pretty happy as I got the last card needed to complete my set.

Not one card is graded less than an 8 with 80 of the cards in 9's (picked up a few more 9's that are not entered yet)
I have some real nice low pop 9's (which less then 10 exisit)

The last card was #21 which was secured in an 8.

I am looking to do some upgrades over time.

I know as set collectors what it means to finish something like this to everyone.

So now I can concentrate on my other projects...
T-206's 25% complete
1971 Topps (55% finished in all 8's)
1973 Topps Baseball all psa 9's and 10's
1974 Topps Baseball 8's, 9's, and 10's.

    Congratulations! I've just started this set and, on a very limited budget, will probably be working on it for the foreseeable future.

    If you're still holding on to the 8's that you upgraded, and you're interested in selling, shoot me a PM. There won't be many that I don't need. image

    Take care.

    Congrats , hopefully the market doesn't crash and ruin your investment. A lot of people in Chicago this weekend felt that way. Just a matter of time in their opinion.

    My cards are collections, and looked upon as such.

    Wow, nice set! How long did it take you to put that beauty together? Did you submit most of the cards yourself? Did you have a few high grade sets and get cards from those? Or were you one of the winners of the sets from one of the recent big auction houses that sold it complete? Congratulations.

    Great job! I've noticed you climbing your way to the top end of the registry.
    It's a good time to upgrade, now, as a lot of 9's are going for bargain basement prices (as compared with 2 or 3 years ago).
    Keep up the good work.

    Way to go! I will probably never know what it feels like to accomplish such a feat. That takes great focus, and I am always changing what I want to go after. I wish I had the money to put together several high end PSA sets, as it is hard to narrow it down to one or two to focus on.
    Anyway, congratulations on completing your goal!image

    Congrats, I have not seen high grade cards selling for big discounts yet. I don't think you need to worry about value as that set is one of the all time best.
    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

    Congrats! I don't see any decline in graded cards from the early- mid 60s either. Great accomplishment and a beauty of a set! image
