Several of us ole "dinosaurs" in the hobby, who collected 1952 Topps as kids in 1952, have compared notes over the years on all that is 1952 Topps.
Most of us have put together "master sets". I need a few more GRAY's to complete my set. Also, I should add that I have all of my 1952 Topps cards
from my youth.
Anyhow, everyone of us dinosaurs recall very well that none of these GRAY's were available in '52. There are enough of us that we represent various
regions of the country, so it can't be said that the GRAY's were limited to a specific regions in this country.
One of the well-known veteran collectors in the hobby, John Rumierz, has done some research and he says this series of 60 BB cards were issued with
products other than Topps gum. This is obvious, since there is no gloss on the front of these GRAY's (as is found on the regular 1952 Topps BB cards).
John R. thinks that the GRAY's were issued circa 1953-54.
