I know this will not come as a surprise to anyone, but I think that it is time for DPeck100 to win a Modern Misc. Set of the Year for his 1982 A Wrestling All Stars set. When you consider that the Hulk Hogan PSA 9 went for $2600 and $1800 in auctions the last few months and the Andre the Giant is a Pop 2 in PSA 9, his Ric Flair PSA 10, and all the other cards in either PSA 9 and PSA 10...his set is amazing. The money required to put together a comparable set is quite expensive and it is amazingly difficult (impossible) to put together a comparable set unless DPeck would release some of his duplicates (which he will not). I was a bit surprised to see him not win last year, but believe this should be the year that his tremendous wrestling all star set(s) be recognized as they were in SMR. Perhaps others can chime in here about some others that deserve mention. I hope to learn about other great potentially award winning sets put together by posters here from the forum. Who do you got for an award for 2013?

I would be lying if I said I did not want to win.
I definitely have my fingers crossed and will be anxiously awaiting the email when it comes out.
Always looking for Topps Salesman Samples, pre '51 unopened packs, E90-2, E91a, N690 Kalamazoo Bats, and T204 Square Frame Ramly's

Likewise with my '48 Leaf Master Set. The one's that I'm missing are 1/1's. Gonna be tough to get to the 95% threshold although I have a decent lead over #2.
Once I saw that I instantly snagged the Buddy Rose to build my lead back up by one card.
The Sheik El Kaissey had become a pop 2 in the same submission. I remember buying my copy for $40.

I just checked your sets and it looks as if you only need a few to complete the second series. Fill those spots so you can be 100% complete.
I am only four cards away from having the 1955 Parkhurst set entirely graded. I will be able to finish that one off this year for sure. I have the cards but just looking for a few more cards that could grade higher than the ones sitting in a card saver. I do have another raw 1955 set coming in which I am excited about. You never know though until they are in hand.
As for my 1954 Parkhurst wrestling set, I do think it is creeping into the territory of being an award winning set. It will probably not be this year but my hopes that it eventually will be, or the master set of the 1954 Parkhurst set with all the Lucky Premium backs in it once I finish that one off. The issues that I can tell which may cause pause to give this set an award is that my GPA is just 6.35 which does not sound impressive. On the other hand, if you took all the cards graded to date the best GPA of a set would be 7.02. Of course this does reveal that there is room for improvement but when you are getting this close to all time status to such a condition sensitive set, I am on to something. As you know I have bought countless Parkhurst sets over the years and now it seems the price is definitely spiking to buy them as there have been nice sales of some of the key cards graded. It will be more of a challenge for me to improve my set with the increase in competition, but anyone going for this set has a lot of ground to cover to reach the heights that I am at right now. I do not suspect there will be a huge find of raw material for these cards out there and if there was the issues with centering, wax staining, etc and all the issues with them would still be present.

<< <i>Anyone hoping for poppage before May 31st for a set registry badge? I have had a bunch of my 1973s at PSA for a calendar month and I am hoping to get poppage so I could get a badge for the 1973 Wrestling Annual cards. At this point I am skeptical if I will make the deadline. >>
I'm also waiting, but I don't think I'll make it either. Loggage on Apr 1 for a 45 business day order. If I get poppage, I should ease by the current #1 in the set.

I was really excited when I got the email from PSA.
My #1 1982 Wrestling All Stars Series A set has some really cool cards in it and I have not had an upgrade to the set in nearly a year and a half.
Congratulations to all of the other winners and I feel fortunate to be amongst them.

Give me a few minutes and I will print a copy and scan his page in.
That is the first I have seen of my award printed in SMR. It looks great.
I will have to pickup a couple of extra copies.
Less than 2 weeks till the National. I can hardly wait.
Looking forward to seeing everyone.
