Sets I’m Working on! (Updated 3/7)
2007 Topps ‘52
Since this is a bad wax site, I am going to limit my reivews to crappy packs and put my current collection progress on seperate pages. This page will be dedicated to the Topps ‘52 Rookie set. Like I’ve said countless times, I don’t care about the inserts and if I get them, I would gladly trade them to complete sets. Here is what I have so far in the set.

Please let me know if you have any I need, I have lots of older cards for trades.

I’m an idiot, I am still missing one card because I didn’t put it in the original list, Thanks to Jason and Rich for hooking me up with everything I need.
Did you ever get my email? I sent you all I have.
I actually pulled a second Ichiro last night. Even though I have the base set, I keep buying packs trying t ocomplete a couple of those insert sets! So I’ll send everything out tomorrow.
Thanks so much Rich, just let me know which insert set you are working on so I can get you a few of those cards to send back.
Just sent the package out about an hour ago. I’m not really trying to complete any other sets at this point (my 1988 Topps will have to be organized before I know who I need), but I like the Indians, specifically Sizemore, Blake, and Jensen Lewis. As for the Topps insert sets, I need Joe Mauer, Johan Santana, Clay Buchholz, Mickey Mantle and A-Rod from Trading Card History. I also need Edwards, Giuliani and Bill Richardson from the candidate set. Thanks for offering to help!
I know I have the Edwards and Guiliani cards, I have cards 25-30 for trading card history (from hobby shops only). Also I will give you any Indians I have.
Just to be sure, the package I sent did arrive safely to you right?
Yes it did, thanks so much, I do have to get a ton of mail out.
How is it that you have 317 cards but only need one to complete the 330 set? I will have a ton of doubles for inserts. Putting together 2008 Topps and Upper Deck base sets only. Too many inserts.
I forgot to list 308 so I still need it. I updated the page, thanks for the note. Let me know if you have an extra 308.
Any idea on value for the Manny Ramirez game worn jersey card? My son pulled it out of a pack and is estatic.
I believe it’s worth about $15, although (and don’t tell your son this), I can be had on eBay for about $5.
