1952 Topps -- Card Gallery

[LincolnVT]

My card for today. Sima. Love seeing everyone's cards. We are a lucky group to have the cards that we do from this coveted set. I saw a lower grade 1952 Topps set in the current Goldin Auction...will be interesting to see how that does.

I've been watching the set in the Goldin Auction as well. It's kind of all over the place as far as grades with a Mantle that is Authentic Altered but some cards that are 4s and 5s. Most of the high numbers are 1s and 2s.

It's currently at only $33K with 9 days to go so it will definitely be interesting to see where it ends up.

I just looked at the pictures of the set, and some of the grades make no sense to me. Take a look at the Slaughter in the last set of pictures. It's an 8, but it's missing the top, left corner and has other corner wear and surface wear. What was the grader thinking?

Misgrade. It's a PSA 1 with a PSA 8 label (mechanical error). Amazing that Goldin doesn't disclose that in the auction listing.

Edited to add Sima.
