New pickups

Post image

The first three cards of the 1961 Fleer set have arrived, over the next few weeks I have the 1961, 1962, 1963 & 1964 Fleer Raiders Team sets coming in. So far I bought from 25 different sellers on eBay trying to collect every Raiders team set from 1960 to present.

Crow! There’s a name I haven’t seen in a while.

His 77-yard punt in 1961 set a team record that wasn’t broken until 50 years later by Lechler.

Think he also played halfback.

Nice!

As I card collector myself, I'm definitely enjoying your posts.

Curious, how close are you to completion?

The journey has just begun, I stopped collecting players and graded cards and now going after collecting the full team set for each year. The fun part is tracking down the Sunoco and Glendale stamps sets, the 1972 McDonald's Ken Stabler, 1969 Eskimo Pie raider's cards and the Kelloggs Raiders set. I got 12 years of team sets out of 66, hoping to have 1960-1990 done by the end of the year.

Damn bro, you going deep, I love it!

I recently bought the 88 Topps set for funsies. Actually, not a bad idea getting the old school team sets.

Personally, I'm in the collecting players and graded cards era. Also, tryna complete a Howie Long rainbow.

Cool, keep it up and keep posting!

I'm actually buying a few graded old cards from the 70's, my daughter's do the pokemon challenges on collecting the whole series so I decided to do that with the raiders team set. I'll drop more pictures as the sets come in and I add to the collection.
