...can anyone help?? The seller says this is a 1952 Topps Display box, although I thought 1952 looked different (red and green withe the baseball)......if this isn't 1952, what year is it?

    I don't think that it is a 52 either...maybe a 56?

    My daughter was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at the age of 2 (2003). My son was diagnosed with Type 1 when he was 17 on December 31, 2009. We were stunned that another child of ours had been diagnosed. Please, if you don't have a favorite charity, consider giving to the JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation)

    No that's a 61 I believe. Looks just like this years Heritage

    Display boxes are cool, all I know about them is that I like them. I only guessed a 56 since the Mantle he was selling with it was a 56.

    Here is a '52 topps wax box, from the August '08 Mastro. It sold for $720
    It's probably the plainest box they ever issued in terms of graphics (other than the TCG cello boxes) and just has sales copy on the top
