I am just 42 cards shy of my NM-MT (preferably MT) 1978 Topps baseball raw set. Please let me know if you have anything FS!

3, 5, 34, 60, 100, 103, 153, 213, 240, 263, 279, 294, 302, 328, 347, 376, 389, 416, 443, 452, 466, 481, 487, 509, 534, 540, 554, 576, 579, 580, 581, 584, 606, 609, 622, 634, 642, 654, 673, 678, 682, 724

I had a few candidates from your list but centering and print marks (imagine, on 78 Topps?) keep them from being helpful.

Sorry I couldn't help - good luck on your raw set.

I have these on your list. 100 Brett, 540 Carlton. 580 Carew. Will send scans if interested. Need your email address.

Thanks to @yankeeno7 I'm now just 31 cards short of a true NM-MT 1978 Topps raw set!
Thanks Barry!

Here is what is left.

3, 5, 60, 100, 103, 153, 213, 263, 279, 302, 347, 376, 416, 452, 466, 481, 487, 509, 534, 540, 554, 576, 579, 580, 606, 622, 642, 673, 678, 682, 724

No doubt this is a difficult one to accomplish, even raw

28 of the cards you sent made my set.

11 that I needed outright
17 that were better examples of ones in the set.

Thanks Barry! I’ll pm you over the weekend about getting some of these back to you.

That's awesome! I may have a local guy who has some for me to go through. Just difficult finding the time but I will surely take your list with me.

esquiresports · August 12, 2019 5:56PM

I probably have all of them (if they are comments) in NM-MT to Mint and can mail to you. I will try to check tonight or tomorrow.

Wow that's awesome. There are a couple that aren't commons at least. No worries though! Whatever you can do.

You already sent me scans of these. Remember? They weren't quite what I was looking for but thanks for that.

Down to just 24 cards needed! Please PM me as I’ll gladly compensate for true NM - MT examples

3, 5, 60, 100, 103, 213, 263, 302, 347, 376, 416, 466, 481, 487, 509, 534, 540, 554, 579, 580, 622, 642, 673, 724

Are you looking for raw that would be psa 9/10 grade? Or do you want nm-mt in the sense of what would be psa 8? I do have some of those cards raw, but I was going to send the most perfect ones into PSA...

Hey thanks for the post! I'm looking for high grade. Probably easy PSA 8 and even PSA 9 material. As a matter of fact I just a couple days ago finished a deal with @balco758 for a good sized lot of true pack fresh minty material with most of the stars and HOF'ers from the set. I'm pretty excited about it and hoping to check off a bunch of the final 24 cards I need in my raw set as well as grade some of them. More details on that deal to come in the future but what a cool guy Steve was to deal with.

Yosaifweiss · December 10, 2019 10:50AM

I pulled 5 of the commons on your list - 213, 263, 376, 509, and 673 - that look pretty centered and sharp. If you want pictures let me know where to send them...

softparade · December 10, 2019 10:54AM
