All Time Set: The Apostle Collection

Thanks to Steve Hart, Frank Smith, Daniel Haddock, Lewis Ervoes, Duncan Harvey, Mike Castaldi, Roger Rumsey, Joe Yanello, Walt & Deb, Jeff Brewer, Scott Tipton, Steve Pekovich, Chris Porter, Tony Conte, Michael Wentz, Matt Morse, and anyone else who so much as shot me an email with a nice card or two. I thank these guys because they all inspired me to keep my standards high and not to settle for cert #'s. Some helped with finding nice cards, others broke product for me to go through. Some talked cards with me until 1 or 2 in the morning. I am proud that with their help and a little patience, over 80% of the set was self-submitted. Like most 30-somethings who've collected for twenty-something I'm chasing down my childhood here. The summer of '77, I was born into baseball and collecting cards. Every card brings a memory. I'm building 77 & 78 but I chose to grade these. I'm doing a raw set too so I'm always on the lookout for virtually perfect 77's. I've started collecting the OPC variations of each card as well. I'm looking for NM/MT or better copies if anyone can help. Examples would be Tony Perez with the Expos, Rico Carty with Cleveland, etc. Thanks for looking, and I'll randomly add images as time permits!
