Need some help.
I'm wondering if there is a book of some sort that list sets by team. I've been using this site as a guide but have seen more than a few mistakes. I would also be looking for the book to list the oddball sets as well. There are so many cool issues out there that I probably don't even know about. I'm somewhat new to the vintage world so I'm learning as I go. Any help is appreciated.

I use this site:

Best I've found so far. I have the Standard Catalog of Vintage Baseball Cards but it lists them by set alphabetically, so not much help with team sets. Try the website though, it's very good.

Wow that is a great site.... Now all they need is a sample pic of each set.
I need 2007 & 2008 Topps Sterling Base Cards #/250

Larry Fritsch had a Team Checklists book out through....I forget the year, but I figure late 1980s.
You might find it at a used book shop or Amazon or something like that.

That is a GREAT site and I also must say a thousand thanks as I was surfing through his site and found he had the last card I needed to finish off my 1998 Topps Minted in Cooperstown set. I needed 12 more cards when I joined this site back in August, found 4 through trades here and the rest through COMC but #260 just seemed to be non-existent everywhere I looked...lol...
