1959 -100%

Finally! It was a terrific challenge and I loved every minute of it.

Check it out!

I tried a different approach to my card commentary, inserting a timely 1959 baseball story. Let me know if you think it works, and/or what can be done to improve it.

Thanks for all of the help from the Board!

Nick,
What a great set you have there. I have really enjoyed looking at these cards that I purchased and I now have found a new challange to make one as nice as yours. Are you planning on upgrading the set or is this a finished product? Either way you certainly have done a very nice job.

Way to go Nick on finishing this set . Its a great looking set . Its also the year I was born . I started the 59 set about 2 years ago but decided to collect modern card sets instead.

I'm sure glad it wasn't the 83 Topps baseball , that you had finished , but that would have been fine too.

Very nicely done. Congratulations. On a side note my wife and I travel a bit doing our genealogy research. Looking for her family members in West Central Ohio we came upon Harveys tombstone. It was beautifully done with the theme being his perfect game. Or almost perfect depending on your point of view.

Thanks, guys!

And yes, Shane...I certainly want to upgrade. It would be so cool to have the set in all 8's...but I'm thrilled with the 7/8 combo as it is now.
