It's a start

I mentioned in my new years post that I wanted to start filling in some holes.  Completing vintage pages by nabbing anywhere from 1 to a handful of cards to make the page whole.

This post is my first in what I'm hoping to be a series of these type of posts.  Being able to show off complete vintage pages is something that is quite enjoyable for me, as I'm sure it is for those of you out there working on older sets.

I decided to start with one of my favorite, if not the favorite, hockey set, 1971-72 O-Pee-Chee.


I recently made a 9 card purchase from this set from my favorite ebay seller, The Battersbox.  This page, cards 55-63 was missing 2 cards.


Once Terry Harper and Wayne Hillman were added, this page is now done!  Not only did I fill the page, I also noticed that I already own the Gilbert Perreault card, which I previously didn't think was the case.  I'd been looking at ebay BIN's in the $10-$20 range and now I have one less thing to worry about upon seeing the Sabres great on this page!

More of these to come....

Enjoy the hobby!
