OK, don't "bust my chops" since this is a 1952 Topps......but, this sale is soooooo absurd that it "screams out" to us |

Ted, must be a variation collectors look for. The 2007 SCD guide notes that a "Graded good examples auctioned for $4640.00" in 04,2006. |

It's the rare variation...one red star, and one black. |

Of course, the guy who made it probably wishes it still wasn't posted. Guess he knew what he was after and really hoped to get a deal. |

Yes, my thought was "Wow, prices have come down." |

Yes, the only thing surprising was the low price. It wasn't low because of the economy or prices coming down. It was low because the seller had no clue about what he was selling. No mention of the variation, and "nice filler card" was the best fluff he was able to come up with. The $60 offer in the ask seller question is a classic. |

The fact the card is un-graded & that the Seller had 5 other '52s listed w/OUT showing the reverse EXCEPT on this card leaves the chance of an altered star very possible, no matter what he says. |

The fact that Pennsylvania Ted, a variation seeking madman, wasn't aware of this variation, also makes it more than possible that the average Ebay seller had no idea what he had. Could it be a dastardly devised plan to rip somebody a new star? Or was the back picture added on this card simply because somebody asked for one? |

My question is how many 52 Topps cards have a black star variation? |

To a non-back collector I think it is insane. For a back collector it is a gem. |

Ted, congrats on completing the gray back series from 131 to 190. That's a tough run to put together. |

I started collecting this very rare series of 60 cards in the 52T set back in 1983. |
