Default Gray Backs

Cards 131 to 190 in the 1952 set can be found with with cream or gray backs. The gray backs, sometimes referred to as Canadians as the possible point of distribution, are much more scarce and in themselves can bring a big premium for even common cards as they are highly sought after by master set collectors.

I have a gray back House, but the front is an orange lion. My yellow lion has a cream back. If your yellow is a gray back it may be a double bonus for you among collectors seeking both the front variant and also collecting gray backs
