I made quite a few purchases at the Columbia antique shop. I'll break them up into a few posts, so keep an eye out for them. This post will center around the set needs that I picked up for my 1959 Topps set.
This Al Kaline card is a little rough, but I like it nonetheless. Kaline was one of the last big names that I needed, so I was happy to take it off of the list.
I didn't realize that I still needed Hoyt Wilhelm for the set. This one is a nice card that I got for pretty cheap. I'm pretty sure that I don't need any more Hall of Famers, but I probably should consult a checklist. I've been wrong in the past.
Finally, here is a nice group card of the Cubs, including Ernie Banks. I still need a few of these, and some of them carry a bit of a premium.
In all, I picked up 37 cards for my 1959 set. This definitely pushes the set along for me. I still need quite a few high numbers, but this set should be completed this year. That is my goal, at least.
