I told in the previous posts that I found a quarter box with some vintage, here are some of my finds. Working from the newest to the oldest.
3 1973’s. Again, only 2 count towards the team set. But a 1973 Wilbur Wood leaders card, oh yeah. You might recognize the other 2 on that card as well. Not bad for a quarter, eh? Oh yeah, the other 2 cards put me 6 cards away from the 1973 team set.
I bought a bunch of 1973 Topps for my set collection from Ted over at “Crinkly Wrappers”, He just finished his ‘73 set so he checked out my want list told me how many and set a great price for me. It was a huge boost to my ‘73 set. Big thanks for that Ted.
I fill my player collections first, then team collection, then my sets. So all of the above White Sox, even though are ‘73’s are going to my team collection. So I still need the above for my set.
Ted is an awesome guy because he threw in the following cards as well.
I thought I had most of the 2010 Upper Deck’s but apparently not. I needed all of the above for my team collection. I always love team cards and the oddball Post Frank Thomas. Great cards.
He also sent me a small stack of Colts cards which included these 4 Peyton Manning cards for the Manning player collection. Great to still see him in a Colts jersey.
Thanks again Ted, you’ve been a huge help to my ‘73 set. Be sure to check out “Crinkly Wrappers” and hit Ted up for a trade, he’s great at them.

I went a little over my budget of $.50/card on this one. But after saving a little bit on the other lots, I went ahead and went over. Because I only needed 3 of the 5, it ended up costing me $.57/card. But I couldn’t resist. In case you didn’t notice, I paid the same for each lot because they were $1.08 Buy it Nows. The seller had others, but the number of cards actually needed combined with shipping took me over my budget too much.
I won 4 of these vintage lots at $1 shipping for the first one and $.50 for the next 3. So I divided the $2.50 shipping into 4 and added it to the price I paid for each lot. So it came to $.63 per lot. This was a 9 card lot but I only needed 5 of them, so divided by 5 instead of 9, it came to $.34/card.
