Getting back to the 1952 Topps card in question, all I can say is "WOW!"
The way those diagonal cuts/tears are sized seems too coincidental to be random damage. It appears, in my opinion, they just don't make those paper restoration goops like they used to. In short, in my opinion, it shouldn't even be a 1 or a 2 but "not-holdered" or "authentic".
