Tom's Basketball & Hockey Want List
Last updated: 4/22/2024
My basketball wants consist of cards from 69/70 through 72/73, with an emphasis on the 69/70 & 70/71 set. My hockey wantlist is at the very bottom of the page; hockey is the lowest priority of all cards I'm collecting, but I'm very close to finishing the 73/74 set and the 1970/1971 sticker stamps.
