Did you know that you can have a full run of vintage Topps cards (1952-1979) featuring a different HOF pitcher each year? Not rookie cards, just a regular Topps issue.
Unfortunately, the streak ends in 1979 and doesn't resume until 1987.
The same can't be said for hitters because you would have to double/triple up some years. For pitchers, you can make this run with only one pitcher each year (28 years, 28 pitchers).
Only a few years are non-negotiable (must have Paige for 1953 and Newhouser for 1955, for example).
Anyway, I thought that would be a cool vintage project.
