I continue to be amazed at the attention and pricing given to card stock variations, likely used to just to finish out runs for the most part. Even 50's and 60's cards without true gray/white variance can have different stock. Witness the dingy vs whiter stock used for the 1951 Red Backs or 1967 cards as an example.

Seems to me that with the exception of the 52 and 54 " Canadian" grey backs the demand and premiums for different backs are not as strong. The 56 different backs can be pricey but mostly because of all the big names in the series

I think the image in post 5 shows it pretty strongly.
