Hi Steve
You are correct regarding the 1952 BOWMAN (large) FB cards.
George Moll told me that Bowman had Zabel Bros. increase their printing press tract width to 43-inches in 1953 in order to print their 1953 - 1955 Sports & Non-Sports cards.
Bowman realized that they had to compete with the larger size 1952 - 1955 TOPPS cards.
