This thread has been a fascinating read so far. To my knowledge (which is amateur at best, compared to some of the minds in this thread) weren't there an overwhelming amount of 1952 Topps, left over? I could easily see the scenario that Ted outlined originally happening. Topps was in it's infancy, thye might have viewed it as a way to cut some of their inventory.
Eagerly waiting to see if any more stories trickle in. I agree with David, you gentlemen should definitely write a book!
