WTB 1952 Topps Castiglione #260, Swift #181
 
I'm only 1 card away from completing my 1952 Topps low # set. I'm looking for #181 Bob Swift, and will take any grade from VG-NM. The only stipulation is that I need 60-40 or better centering (both left-right and top-bottom. I'm happy with either graded or raw examples. If you've got this card, please let me know

It was a tough one for me as well even though when I acquired it centering wasn't very important to me at the time.
Centered/nice copies definitely go for a premium but they are out there.
(My copy, which was the best I could find at the time for a reasonable price)

Thanks guys, there should be a support group for '52 set collectors. There are 5-10 names that make set builders cringe when they think of them. The mere mention of Tony Bartirome makes certain grown men weep.

Very true, I still haven’t been able to make myself justify a 332 purchase. That’s the least of my 52T worries though, I still need a Mantle and Robinson

LOL, yeah, an "emotional" support group for us 52 Topps collectors. :D
