Signed Big Red Machine 1970s Topps decade - 7/25/17 Lee May (RIP) additions

CopperJJCopperJJ Posts: 587 ✭✭✭
Back in 2014 I started working on the 1976 Topps Cincinnati Reds signed team set. I had my 1st few graded in the red flip March 2014 group submission that John put together. My 76 set is listed in the registry. While that years set is coming along, in January of this year I decided to do work on the decade as a project. So I'll post here to show my progress. Really looking to get blue sharpie autographs. If you can help, send me a message.

    Those cards look great. Good idea to keep the ink color uniform. Keep us updated on the project.

    A project like that is so awesome.

    I just bought a beauty Bench ball so I know he's not common $ to get signed.

    I look forward to seeing the progress.

    Funny how the Savage and Pascaul both have signatures that resemble the font used for 1970 Topps player names.

    I haven't figured the % yet, maybe I'll work that up this week. I believe I have all of the Fosters signed, unless there is an additional Playoff or World Series type card that I've missed.

    Got an email back from PSA Customer Service. They did not grade the Ted Savage and only gave "Authntic" due to the card being miscut. Unless the back is off, the front sure doesn't look miscut. I should be getting them back today, so I'll check it out and post a pic.

    Quick count, I think I'm at 110/340 or 32%.

    Decided I'm going to dabble with the 1960-1969 Topps Reds teams signed too. I'm only at 15 on that one, so I guess I better get to TTMing.

    Thanks for the replies so far.

    As a big fan of the Reds I must say this is an awesome project. It makes me want to start the 76 signed set, they look awesome signed that year. I already have the Rose and may have others.

    I may have some signed Reds cards you need, I'll check and let you know. I should know this, but haven't kept up with it lately. Are there any players who are hard to find from the 70's Reds teams ?
