My First Completed Set!

I know I'm a very small fish in this pond, but I just completed my first PSA set, the 1965 Topps White Sox Team set. Check it out!

I got the first card for the set in November 2008 (Bill Skowron) and the last in August 2012 (Gary Peters). I didn't realize how long it took until just now...kind of depressing! The most expensive card in the set was PSA 9 AL Pitching Leaders. I think the least expensive was the PSA 8 Tommy McCraw, since I bought it raw and submitted it myself. I don't have any record of what the raw card cost. Otherwise, the PSA 7 Jimmie Schaffer was the least expensive. The entire set cost me just over $450, not including shipping.

I will work on upgrading to at least PSA 8s across the board...not sure I can afford to do much better than that, so it'll be mighty difficult for me to crack the Top 4 current finest list. image Oh well.

I am slowly chronicling the White Sox 1965 season and players on a White Sox message board, showing off the cards as I go. Take a look if interested.
Always looking for vintage White Sox cards at reasonable prices.

    Good job in finishing your set . Most any goal in life , that is completed , brings a sense of accomplishment , once done.
