Sandy Koufax Basic Set
Working on a Koufax basic run to start 2020 (started in November).
Update: As I continue through the basic set also decided to focus on any Topps main set cards such as leaders, etc. I believe there are 30 total cards (with the 63 Fleer). For now here is what I have for the basic set 1955 Koufax PSA 2.5 1956 Koufax PSA 7 1957 Koufax PSA 3 1958 Koufax PSA 6.5 1959 Koufax PSA 6 1960 Koufax PSA 6.5 1961 Koufax PSA 5 1962 Koufax PSA 6 1963 Koufax PSA 6 (Topps) 1964 Koufax PSA 5 1965 Koufax PSA 5 1966 Koufax PSA 7 Been a while so picked up the 1960 and 1966 today.

I've been back and forth a lot the past few years, just wanted to focus on a player and PSA run from the 50's and 60s and decided on Koufax. I do have a run and quite a few Murphys still but there all raw. I have a nice 77 in NRMT condition well centered.
I used to want all high end but no longer with all the stuff going on. Just looking to complete a low end run and have fun!! Quote:

Koufax is a nice run to do. Only 13 cards in his basic set. Along with Stan Musial , the two easiest runs to do for tier 1 Hofers.

Love it! Low grade centered cards are awesome in my book! I bet it took some time to find the right copies but those look great.

It does, especially targeting PSA 2-4 range. I feel like even though they don't cost a ton, it may take me a while. Some may not be perfect, but I like the idea of low grade for the price.

Agree, not sure why anyone would trim a $50ish card so I’m happy.
Plus, I’m just as excited about finding examples to my own eye appeal. Quote:

  Not sure how well this will show, but here’s what they all look like in the PSA album
