1972 Team Set Done!!!

This post is brought to you by that awkward moment when you realize the cute girl with the pretty smile that's been flirting with you, is actually a Yankees fan.

Finally. I FINALLY picked up the last card to finish off the '72 Mets team set. All I needed was a Tim Foli In Action, high number of course but whatever, I was prepared to pay the extra $2 it takes to reel those in.

Tim Foli, who gives a shit about Tim Foli cards, right?

Biggest pain in my ass I've encountered in cardboard in a long time.

For a little while, I wasn't finding any on the bay and beginning to doubt it's existence. Then, when they did start showing up, they were all graded and/or BINs for some ridiculous ransom.

But I stayed strong and finally nabbed the fucker for about $6 shipped. Maybe I still over payed by a buck or two but it was time to finish this off and it was better than the next cheapest option of over $15.

Anyways, here's the completer card which leaves me with only '70, '71 and '76 left to finish off the decade!
