• Card Facts – Lou Brock and Bert Campaneris – Card #64
• Purchase Price – $1 (Purchased at my LCS)

The Bert Campaneris card above is the 3rd different card of him in this set that I’ve posted so far.  You can click his name to see the others.

• Cards posted in this set – 292
• Total price paid – $60.37
• Average price per card – $0.21
• Cards left to post – 392 (including NNO Checklists)
• Percentage posted – 292/684 (43% posted)
• Percentage completed – 314/684 (46% completed)

Average price per card went up another penny.  It wouldn’t surprise me if by the time I finished the 1973 Topps cards I have right now if it wasn’t around $.31 a card since that’s what I paid for the big lot I bought from Ted.
