Sports Card Wantlists
UPDATED 3/26/23
First, a note about my collecting style. This goes for baseball, basketball, and hockey. I actually like to 'play' with my cards. I've always enjoyed this, ever since I was a kid. Open a couple packs of cards and pretend that's my team, I make a lineup and batting order, starting 5 on the court, hockey lines, etc. I still do this, but what I like to do now is put together 'play sets'. So for instance I am working on a mid to late 70's hockey play set which includes most anyone who played during that era. I deal them out and make teams. So in many cases, rather than trying to put together a complete set from a given year/brand, I try to put together a play set that includes one of each player from a set of years. As such, beat up cards are best (and most affordable!), and it's often a good starting point to finish or mostly finish one specific year, and then build out from there with cards from years near that.

Vintage Wantlist: My ultimate goal is to collect 1 base card of each player from the 50's or so to now, even if it's a beater. For instance I'll never afford a Gordie rookie, but a Gordie base card from the 70's is within reason. Also would like to put together a 60's original 6 'master set' so to speak (one card of each player, any year in the original 6 era). Probably my best bet here is a lot of beat up cards.
Here are my specific wants.
HOCKEY SET NEEDS:
1968-88 OPC: I'd take any OPC cards or set starters from any of these sets.
ANY 50's: 1 base card of each player
HAVE: Aldcorn, Bathgate, Cahan, Creighton, L.Ferguson, Flaman, Fogolin, Fontinato, Godfrey, Hanna, Hannigan, Hassard, Hergesheimer, Howell, F.Kennedy, Klukay, Kullman, Laycoe, Mackell, F.Martin, Mazur, Mickoski, Mohns, Mosdell, R.Murphy, Pavelitch, Prentice, Raleigh, Reise, Ronty, St. Laurent, Sandford, Skov, Sloan, S.Smith, Stanley, J.Toppazzini, Ullman, Vasko, L.Wilson

Pre 73, any sets not listed: I welcome any cards, any condition! Vintage hockey is my favorite, so whether I end up working on all the sets eventually, or just pick up random cards from random sets, I'd like to get a lot more vintage hockey into my collection.

Eddie Waitkus: Bowman 50, 55
RC Wants: At my core I am a rookie card collector. When I first got back into collecting 5 or 6 years ago, my initial goal was to get 1 rookie card of each key rookie from the 1980's baseball. Now I'm moving back to include vintage rookies as well, all sports. The earlier the cards are, the more likely I am actually looking for rough copies so they're more realistic to obtain. IE I'm not planning to get a Seaver or Clemente (2 of my personal favorites) rookie card unless they have serious flaws.

*1958 Topps: 487 Mantle, Berra
*1959 and 1961 Topps: I'm now well on my way on both sets thanks to OBC! My two favorite vintage sets, because I found some of my dad's old cards from these two years. Unfortunately I didn't keep them. I'd like to continue to build them with 61 a priority over 59. Specifically I'd be looking for the cards I know I had as a kid:
1959: 380 Aaron
1961: 344 Koufax

1960's Topps:
I'd like to put together a master set that includes 1 of each player from the 60's. Certainly doesn't have to include EVERY player who played in the decade, but I'd like it to include the regulars. I have a few hundred mostly commons from 64-66 that gives me a good start. At this point I'd just like to add more cards regardless of condition, especially stars and minor stars. Specifically:
Mantle (62,63, or 65)
Aaron
Mays (62-66)
Clemente
Rose
Yaz
Koufax
Brock
Morgan
Stargell
McCovey
Musial (63)

First, a note about my collecting style. This goes for baseball, basketball, and hockey. I actually like to 'play' with my cards. I've always enjoyed this, ever since I was a kid. Open a couple packs of cards and pretend that's my team, I make a lineup and batting order, starting 5 on the court, hockey lines, etc. I still do this, but what I like to do now is put together 'play sets'. So for instance I am working on a mid to late 70's hockey play set which includes most anyone who played during that era. I deal them out and make teams. So in many cases, rather than trying to put together a complete set from a given year/brand, I try to put together a play set that includes one of each player from a set of years. As such, beat up cards are best (and most affordable!), and it's often a good starting point to finish or mostly finish one specific year, and then build out from there with cards from years near that.

HOCKEY
Vintage Wantlist: My ultimate goal is to collect 1 base card of each player from the 50's or so to now, even if it's a beater. For instance I'll never afford a Gordie rookie, but a Gordie base card from the 70's is within reason. Also would like to put together a 60's original 6 'master set' so to speak (one card of each player, any year in the original 6 era). Probably my best bet here is a lot of beat up cards.
Here are my specific wants.
HOCKEY SET NEEDS:
1968-88 OPC: I'd take any OPC cards or set starters from any of these sets.
ANY 50's: 1 base card of each player
HAVE: Aldcorn, Bathgate, Cahan, Creighton, L.Ferguson, Flaman, Fogolin, Fontinato, Godfrey, Hanna, Hannigan, Hassard, Hergesheimer, Howell, F.Kennedy, Klukay, Kullman, Laycoe, Mackell, F.Martin, Mazur, Mickoski, Mohns, Mosdell, R.Murphy, Pavelitch, Prentice, Raleigh, Reise, Ronty, St. Laurent, Sandford, Skov, Sloan, S.Smith, Stanley, J.Toppazzini, Ullman, Vasko, L.Wilson
ANY 60-67 (Original 6): 1 base card of each player
HAVE: Abel, Backstrom, Ciesla, Duff, J.Ferguson, T.Green, Henry, Hicke, D.Hull, Ingarfield, A.Johnson, Langlois, Laperriere, MacGregor, Maki, D.Marshall, P.Martin, Pilote, Prentice, Provost, Ravlich, D.Robinson, F.Smith, JG Talbot, G Tremblay, JC Tremblay, Westfall, Worsley, Woytowich
Pre 73, any sets not listed: I welcome any cards, any condition! Vintage hockey is my favorite, so whether I end up working on all the sets eventually, or just pick up random cards from random sets, I'd like to get a lot more vintage hockey into my collection.

Eddie Waitkus: Bowman 50, 55
RC Wants: At my core I am a rookie card collector. When I first got back into collecting 5 or 6 years ago, my initial goal was to get 1 rookie card of each key rookie from the 1980's baseball. Now I'm moving back to include vintage rookies as well, all sports. The earlier the cards are, the more likely I am actually looking for rough copies so they're more realistic to obtain. IE I'm not planning to get a Seaver or Clemente (2 of my personal favorites) rookie card unless they have serious flaws.

*1959 and 1961 Topps: I'm now well on my way on both sets thanks to OBC! My two favorite vintage sets, because I found some of my dad's old cards from these two years. Unfortunately I didn't keep them. I'd like to continue to build them with 61 a priority over 59. Specifically I'd be looking for the cards I know I had as a kid:
1959: 380 Aaron

1960's Topps:
I'd like to put together a master set that includes 1 of each player from the 60's. Certainly doesn't have to include EVERY player who played in the decade, but I'd like it to include the regulars. I have a few hundred mostly commons from 64-66 that gives me a good start. At this point I'd just like to add more cards regardless of condition, especially stars and minor stars. Specifically:
Mantle (62,63, or 65)
Aaron
Mays (62-66)
Clemente
Rose
Yaz
Koufax
Brock
