A Classic set that I just aquired 33% of the set in one large trade. All the cards were mid grade and fit perfectly in my hunt for putting together all sets from 1955-1970. Here's a few and I will post a few more sets to get this board rolling. Football is my passion, either graded or raw and always, always looking to trade for more. Enjoy, Joe src="">
In Rememberance of James W. Brennan Sr. 1924-1982. Dad, thanks for everything you did for me.

I love this set. I have recently acquired the 6 Jewish players from this set in absolutely "near poor" (terrible)condition, which is really all I can afford:
# 13 Aaron Rosenberg
# 41 Joe Alexander
# 62 Harry Newman
# 64 Benny Friedman
# 85 Sid Luckman
# 89 Marshall Goldberg
As with my T206 set, I am down to the final few expensive cards. (Rockne, Four Horsemen, Thorpe, and Hutson) Even if I never complete the set, it has a wealth of history in it!
20 years or so ago, I traded the 4 horsemen, Hutson, and Grange in EX-NM shape for a whole bunch of 85 Topps Eric Davis cards, and several 86 Topps Todd Worrell's.
I kept the Wizzer White error card.
I've still got the Eric Davis and Worrel cards somewhere, anyone want them?
Definitely my favorite football set; I'm almost 1/2 way home. I had a raw NM Thorpe and traded for something I can't even remember and I havn't seen one as nice since.
