Just completed 1959 Topps Phillies set
Kind of lost my way with vintage when Heritage came out and then bought Lineage after that. Wish I would have stayed focused. Could have probably finished a few of my vintage team sets for the money I spent. Anyways, I'm back and hoping to stay focused on my Phillies pc and my newly started Philly A's pc. Heres the 1959 Topps Phillies team set I just finished today.
There's a few exmt cards in there but most I would say are nm. I'm 3 cards from the Phillies 1954 Bowman team set and 6 away from the 1955 Bowman team set so those will be next. Thanks for looking and comments always welcome.
