I agree with Greg. With a few special exceptions, 1950s cards in lower grades have gone down a lot. People now know there is a TON of that stuff out there. Many, many multiples of almost any pre-war set you could name. And the '50s stuff is available all the time in high grade...which really depresses the prices on off-grade material.

For me, '50s HOF - even top HOFers - in off-grade (or even mid-grade) is about the last thing I'd invest in within this hobby.

Cheers,
Blair
