It's an interesting question. While putting together this set back in the '80's, I came upon several cards that were dark, despite appearing to be near mint in all other respects. Most of them seemed to be in the first two series (#s 1-72). Could be mistaken, but I think I recall reading something in an old hobby publication claiming that these darker specimens came off the Bowman press run like that. Not sure why, but maybe a pressworker put in an inferior stock sheet, which would have been caught pretty quickly, but a decision was made to just release the cards anyway rather than toss them out.
Not doubting your word or memory Volod, but I don't recall ever hearing about diff stock on '52 Bowman & I've been following the set for a long time. Of course, I certainly could have missed something along the way.
