Default 1950's Topps Power Rankings

Posted By: jim

I would put the king ('52) at the top but lump the 53-56 run as #2. Then the '57 - '59 in order. There is something wonderful about the big issue Topps from the best 5 year run for any sportscard issue. I am missing one card from having complete sets of the 5 year wonder run (#311). The '52 is graded but the other 4 years are placed in binders. No head cases in any of these runs, just good hardnosed ballplayers who worked jobs in the offseason and treated fans/kids with kindness. What it must have been to be a New Yorker living back in those days.
