MIKE'S SET WANTLIST
In collecting Mets, I occasionally come across a set of cards that I like. Whether it be for the artwork or the nostalgic feel or for its content, I will attempt to put it together. I got back into collecting in 2009 and the first box I bought was the T206's. I fell in love with them so I thought I'd try and build the set. Still looking for a ton of sp's listed below. The very first set I ever completed from packs was the 1972-73 Topps Hockey set. Having learned that, Billy O. from "The Bench" sent me a huge lot of them to bring me back to my childhood and I had to put the set together once again. The set was completed in 2014. Thanks Old Goat!
