Last updated July 16, 2021 unless otherwise noted. If the audit date is more than a month old, please ask before sending, including RAOK cards.

I hate upgrading but here goes: These cards either have writing on the front or four soft corners or are otherwise low grade. [Audited 5-25-19]
This is a saga.
2014: Received many at National '14. Purchased a bunch of others. Came home from Cleveland and decided that even more need upgrades.
2015: I thought I bought the remaining ones but came home from Chicago with the three listed above. Arrrrgh.
2016: More crossed off and more added. I'm not a good upgrader. I'm sick of these. I don't know if I will ever try upgrading another set.
2017: Just discovered two more that need upgrading. When will this end?
2018: Got the list down to one card 338 Sparky Anderson RC). But of course I discovered others to upgrade. 104 Rice (pencil on front), 106 Woodeshcick (four soft corners), 153 Marshall (gray back), 157 Mantilla (gray back) [Sent by Morganti but where is it??]. This is ridiculous. 258 Kipp GR (four soft corners). I skipped a few btw Mantilla and Gray. 270 Hodges (gray) (soft corners)), 298 Clevenger (gray) (four soft corners)), 323 Sullivan (gray) (soft corners)), 422) WTF why is there no card in this pocket??? Landrith), 459 Tuttle) (four soft corners). And yes, I skipped some. So there you have it. 12 more. Replacements may even be in my dupes box.

1969 Topps FB #2 - complete!
1969 Topps Four-in-One inserts (This is a set of the perforated cards) [Need 3] [Audited 6/29/19]
Gremlin alert #1. Now need Pete Gogolak. I stupidly put Charlie Gogolak in Pete's place. [Update maybe got this from Gary Mandell but need to verify.] And I am still working to verify if there are any more gremlins but its a slow process. For each set of four, I rebuild the card, double-checking that I have the correct sequence (top left, top right, bottom left, bottom right) Update Somewhere I think I found a FB album with stamps so I raided the Pete Gogolak. Of course that means I will find two other Gogolak's tomorrow.
Gremlin alert #2. I cannot find Karl Noonan MIA. MORON. I had a big pile of extras in a little plastic box but shared them with someone else before confirming I was done.
Guess what? I've lost some of these. They must have fallen out. What an idiot! List forthcoming
Update I lost several others. Four I think. Dawson among them. WTF.
Fell out somewhere: Suggs, Dawson, Rushing - I had these but now they are lost!
[8/6/15 I'm close enough on these that I will start accumulating the unperforated cards. :-) I only have a couple of these.]

1 Puzzle binder. Doesn't everyone have a puzzle binder? Backs of the 1968 All-Star teams forms a puzzle. So does the 1969 all-star team. 1972 has backs with a puzzle of Yaz. And there are puzzles in football and hockey too. I don't recall any basketball puzzles. Maybe 'puzzles' are an excuse to create my own webpage because these really need pictures.
