Patrick made a brutal but right on remark of the '52 Topps. There ARE too many head shots. If it weren't for the great expressions and the master craftsmanship in the colorization ..... The variety of the colors helps, too. Obviously, there's enough great cards to keep one interested. But Patrick is right---Topps made too many head shots! It got worse in '53, but again, there's so many good ones and the artwork is awesome.
Someone mentioned '53 Bowman and there's a set with lots of variety in the poses. I well remember when I first saw, and bought the same day, Gil Hodges. It is such a stunning card.
