I am not sure how this will go as I have never built a set before. When I was seven my cousin and I used to play football with his 73 Topps cards. He recently passed away so I am going to build the set in his honor. I have no cards now so I need all of them. Thanks in advance for any help.

I can probably help on a start.Not sure of average condition but Id say G to VG and Ill pull best ones I can.Will let you know asap. Jeff.
 
My condolences on the passing of your friend.I m building alot of sets and the 73 Football is one of them.I think I need 3 cards to finish.ANyway I have 121 cards I pulled that would be a nice start for you.The cards are not perfect and have flaws but I pulled the best possible, I had more but the conditions werent as good.Some of these do have light creases, off center, light stains,but all in all a nice beginners lot.Will trade for pretty much anything vintage, baseball especially.Plmk and we can go from there.
 
I don't have much baseball but what years do you consider vintage? I will see what I can find. Thanks.
 
Probably anywhere 77 and older.Would trade for vintage football as well.
