    Excellent! Nice looking cards. Are you going to put the set together?

    Actually, I was going to start the set after completing the 1971 Topps Greatest Moments set (still short 10 cards on that one) but couldn't resist these. I think they had the whole set for auction (mostly raw). I had bids in for 8 or 9 different ones. Not sure if I'm going to go after the set or just the HOFers.

    These are 2 beautiful examples from a very cool/tough set! Congrats! Always had a soft spot for Mathews, probably the least appreciated 500 HR hitter of all time.
  • Those are very nice looking stand-ups. Would love to have a Brooksie in those conditions. Maybe one day...

    Daniel ... two very nice looking cards. Congrats. I really like the set. Over the past few years I started putting this set together VERY SLOWLY in PSA 4, 5 and 6. I have a little more than half the set, but none of the big names. Good Luck if you decide to put it together.
    STAY HEALTHY!

    Both cards are nice, but the Killebrew really shines!

    Nice, the Killebrew really stands out. Great pick ups!
