As in Ghostbusters, crossing the streams is bad (comparing Bowmans to Topps, for example), and it makes it difficult to reasonably compare '48-'51 Bowmans to '51-'52 Topps. So if we shouldn't compare inter-company cards (and I basically agree with that), then we are left comparing intra-company cards. Which then also means that we will at times be comparing second cards to first cards and maybe not true 'rookie' cards. With that in mind, I think most if not all First/RC from the '51 Topps set would be less than those from the '52 set in similar condition.
