Picked up the last card I needed to complete my 1952 Topps gray back run. I honestly thought I would never finish....could not have done this without help from a number of N54 friends - Ted, Billy and Dale thanks for keeping an eye out and searching auction sites.

Fini!

Congratulations!!! Any idea how many other complete gray back runs there are? I don't remember seeing one in an auction.

Thanks all. I know of at least 1 other, and probably 2 others. As for a complete run of the gray back, glossy fronts - I believe there are 60 (not 61 as in the gray backs). I do not believe anyone has a complete run of glossies.

Surprisingly, the deeper I dug into the set, the more questions that popped up, refuting some long-held assumptions.
