1952 Topps -- Card Gallery

Because there are transition cards I tend to view the House as a print defect rather that a variation, but know others differ. It is interesting that the yellow versus the orange tiger also exist on the gray backs ( it has been posted in other threads), so that may lend weight to the variation view. If transition cards exist in gray as well, and adding in Dale's green slime version, no telling how many Houses it takes to have a full house

And my Mr. Young.

My Bob Young. It's a good thing he wasn't the great pitcher because the Bob Young Award just doesn't sound as good to me.

In 1953 Bob was one of only 4 white MLB players invited to join the Jackie Robinson interracial barnstorm Fall schedule. The others were Hodges, Rosen and Branca. Those players had to sit out some games in the south due to state or local laws prohibiting interracial mixing in such games
