picked up 3 very nice 1952 topps cards today

$20 piece. all three have fantastic centering.

al widman white back - corners are fantastic. i looked at 3 8's on ebay and this one looks nicer; centering as close to 50/50 as you can get

steve souchock - looks at least to be 6 or 6.5, corners a little weak, but not much, 60/40 centering all around

dale mitchell - looks at least to be 6.5 or 7, corners a little weak, but not much, 52/48 centering all around

the gentleman i bought from had purchased them years ago (30 yrs).

    Great pickup. Scans would be even greater.

    EDITED TO ADD: If that WIDMAR grades better than an "8" you just hit a GRAND SLAM! Even if it gets into an "8" slab, that's going to be worth about ten times your cost.
    STAY HEALTHY!

    Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.

    I tried to load in some pics last night and the site said the pic was too big. Not sure how to get them in this file.

    Not an easy task to get 52's in anything higher than a 6! Scans please
