His final Topps cards featured during his playing days; the 1976 Topps Record Breaker and base Topps card were the first vintage cards I ever bought. A few years back I picked up a well loved 1954 Topps Henry Aaron RC and at that point I decided I'd try to collect all his Topps cards in between.
Between his base, All-Star and League Leader cards there are 69 different Topps Hank Aaron cards between 1954 and 1976.
For me condition isn't all that important. In fact, the poor condition is what allows me to find them within my budget.
I still have a few Aaron cards I need to scan and add to the post.

69 Topps Hank Aaron cards from 1954 - 1976. I currently have 29/69.
That is some collection! Your '54 is absolutely beautiful :)
ReplyDeleteGreat cards. Best of luck picking up the rest.
ReplyDeleteThat '54 rookie card is one of those cards I will go to my grave wanting, but never owning. Best of luck grabbing the others.
