Want List Wednesday: 2020 Topps -- 1985 Topps Baseball 35th anniversary

OK, so I've been a slug.  Haven't posted in a week.  The main reason has been I'm working the "late shift" this month and don't get off until 715.  Usually after turning off the computer I'll go and spend the rest of the evening with the wife, watching some Netflix, or some hockey, depending on the mood.

Had to get back into the posting routine today, and I haven't done a want list Wednesday in months, so let's go!!


I've always liked '85 Topps, I think largely due to the team name being in a large banner at the bottom.  I know it's not everyone's cup of tea, but for me it was worthy enough to try and put together the 150 card set from this year's flagship release. 

The 3 cards above are the first from Series 2 that I've obtained via the trade route.  In several trips to the big box stores in my area, Series 2 is constantly cleaned out, so I'm thinking that I'll have to completely finish this off via trades or purchases.

Here's the want list...

Series 1

1,2,7,8,10,18,20,23,24,25,26,28,29,31,35,37,43,44,45,46,49,50,51,57,58,
60,62,67,68,69,70,71,73,74,75,77,79,82,88(x2),92,93,94,97,98,99

Series 2

1,2,3,4,5,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,28,29,30

31,32,33,34,35,36(x2),37,38,39,40,41,42,43,44,45,46,47,48,49,50

I just added the Series 2 list today since I just obtained the 3 cards above yesterday via a very large PWE haul over the past few days.  Even though I haven't posted, I have been busy.

Note #36 in series 2 is Andrew McCutchen, so I'll need 2 copies of that.  Number 88 in series 1 is Ichiro, so 2 copies are wanted as well.

If you have any you want to trade, drop me a comment, or hit me on TCDB if you reside there (rmitchell6700 is my user ID).

Enjoy the hobby!!
