  << <i>I actually managed to finish my first registry set with the arrival of my 1964 Bob Gibson today, I know it's only 17 cards but with my ADD that is still quite an accomplishment. I need to finish adding scans, but here is my Bob Gibson Basic Topps set >>
  
  Congratulations Doran!
  
  There's no such thing as a small set IMO - just one of ones many goals.
  
  Heck, I've been working on a 67 card set since Jan 04!

  Way to go! I can't wait until I can say I've completed a Registry Set!
  
  Did any one else see the MLB network interview of Bob Gibson and Tim McCarver?? That was fascinating to hear about the behind-the-scenes discussions that took place in the World Series' they were in. It was especially interesting when they were getting some Detroit Tigers players' (Al Kaline and ???) perspective on what went on. I admire Mr. Gibson even more after that interview. Awesome pitcher -- especially during the 1968 season when he had that 1.12 ERA!
