2022 Collecting Accomplishments

[AndyDrummond]

Hey all,

As we wind down the year, I’m curious to know who hit one of their big collecting goals this year? Also feel free to post anything you didn’t accomplish so that one of us might be able to get you there before Sunday. Let’s see some cool stuff!

Getting organized is my main goal as always. Would like to complete my 2022 Topps Heritage set and start and complete the 2022 Topps Heritage High Numbers set and if I can knock off 100 cards for my 1961 Topps set.

2022 was going to be the year I wrapped up the 1961 Topps set, but alas, that is now the 2023 goal. I did pass 500 cards in the set though, so have 83 more to go - primarily tough high numbers and major stars. Big congrats to @AndyDrummond for finishing his 1961 set this year!

The main reason I did not progress so much on the '61 set was my focus on 2021 Topps Japan edition parallels. Since my last update in the post - https://sportscardclub.com/threads/2021-topps-japan-edition.150254/#post-918068 - I have added 7 more parallels, so now have parallels of 112 players - all serial numbered under 99 - in this 220 card set. I have a large lot coming in direct from Japan in next few weeks which may put me over 150. This has been really fun.

The most satisfying accomplishments in 2022 was completing or adding to a number of insert sets, entirely through trades or SCC breaks:

2022 Bowman Hi-Fi Futures - finished 1 set, and am about halfway through 2nd set
2022 Bowman Virtuosic Vibrations - finished 1 set, working on 2nd
2021 Topps Allen and Ginter T51 Murad Reimagined - Completed 1 and a half sets of this 50-card set -100% through trades
2020 Topps Update #1 Prospects - 3 cards short of finishing a 3rd set
2020 Topps Update #1 Prospects BLACK #/d to 299 - 1 card short - P-3 Wander Franco - of having all 30 cards numbered /299
2022 Topps Chrome New Classics - finished 1 set, working on 2nd
2022 Topps Chrome Heart of the City - 3 cards short of finishing 1st set
2021 Bowman Best Future Vibrance - making progress on this 40 card set (about 2/3 complete after a soon-to-be-finalized trade here on SCC) again 100% through trades

2022 Bowman Bowman in 3-D - one card has eluded me to wrap up this set - B3D-14 Bobby Witt Jr.

I would love to trade for that Witt if anyone has one available.

Congrats to everyone else for finding those cards you got in 2022 and good luck on what you still need.

Great seeing these…as I shift to more vintage collecting, I think finishing my 61 set was huge, thanks for the shout out @LarryG, but my biggest accomplishment was putting these 4 together as I go after what is probably my favorite Topps set ever:



I was also super happy to add one of my childhood grails and am now nearly complete on the 80-81 Topps Basketball set:



All in all I had a very fortunate year as far as my collection goes. In addition to these cards, I also finished off the 2022 Silver Pack set thanks to a ton of help from everyone here at SCC. This is the first time I have ever completed it before the end of the actual year the set came out and that’s in big part to all the great members here!

Well done Andy . Very nice addition especially the Bird with a strong grade!

2023 has already brought me one of the real chase cards from my wantlist. I was able to purchase 4 of these 1997 Calbee J League cards as part of a lot so a couple other collectors in my world got blessed with the opportunity to add this as well. I enjoy the chase and unearthing cards people haven't seen or had the opportunity to buy.
