Starting a new PC - HOF Topps RC PSA

[EDGARMARTINEZcollector]

So I've decided that I want to start a new PC and have decided on a HOF Topps RC PSA PC.
My "guidelines" will be:
Topps RCs only (unless there isn't one, then I want the RC and the first Topps card of that player). This way I can enjoy both the HOF side of it as well as a type collection of sorts.
For now, BBWWA elected HOFers only.
I want to get the highest grade possible that makes sense to me...10s for the more recent playerss and as the cards get older/more condition sensitive/more expensive, I will downgrade accordingly. Cards must be centered.

I'll post an update each time I complete an election year.

My first additions:

2014: Frank Thomas, Greg Maddux, Tom Glavine


2013: No players elected.

2012: Barry Larkin


Thanks for looking!

Sounds like a fun PC to me. Should get pretty challenging as you go back. Is there a registry set for what you are working on? I haven't looked into it myself.

LOVE IT!!!!!!

are you working backwards from this year to 1952?

i ask because there are cards like Aaron that are only going to go up in price in the future

This sounds like it's going to be an epic collection! Good luck!

Does your RC include the new RC! also?

I think you are going to have a lot of fun building this PC. Great choice and keep posting them!

I'm going to work my way back, but will definitely hop around if a nice centered vintage copy with the grade I want pops up.

Thanks for the comments everyone! Should be fun.
BenG76, I'm not working on a registry set...although I wouldn't be surprised if there is one.

i'd highly recommend staying far away from any sort of registry

I couldn't agree more...I imagine that could get quite expensive. I noticed in your signature that you are very close to completing a PSA HOF collection. Congrats! Hope you're able to find that Paige son.

Yes, it IS very addicting and costly! LOLOLOL

and thank you for your kind words, been at it a long time.

I looked and didn't see one that specified HOF Topps Rookies. I have a couple registry sets I am working on as well was why I asked.

Some new additions...

2011:Roberto Alomar and Bert Blyleven


It took a while to find a nice, centered PSA 6 Blyleven...but I'm extremely happy with the card.
It looks better than a 6 to me.
I wasn't willing to pay the price for higher grades...those high grade '71s get expensive real quick.
