I would say go for it - depending on where you go to collect.
The red back set is no problem at all. You can find those at shows and on ebay at good prices. You can even find unopened packs at a low price. How cool for your son to open a 60-year old pack of cards.
The problem will be the blue backs. There just aren't any dealers out there who have them. They're an afterthought set so none of them bother to stock it. When they do the cards sell quickly.
If you dealing on ebay you can find them (mostly graded or beaters) but you just can't find them at shows.
Make life easy...collect the red back set and call it good.
