I am thinking of starting one the Presidential PSA sets and was curious if any one had any suggestions as to which one to tackle. I know there is the 32 Caramel and the 52 Bowman set that exists. If I chose now I am leasing toward the 32 Caramel. Does anyone have any insight on these 2 sets or suggestions on any other set. Ideally I would like to find one that contains all the Presidents but in my quick search these were the 2 that I could find. Any thoughts appreciated. Thank you.

Working on the following sets
1980's and 1990's Topps Baseball BBCE FASC - Cello or Wax Boxes
1952 Bowman US Presidents PSA 7 & up
Pro Football Hall of Fame Indianapolis Colts PSA Registry Set
June 9th Cubs full ticket or stubs - 1981 to 2020
Andre Dawson Topps Basic registry PSA 10's
Mark Grace Topps Basic registry PSA 10's

    You could go more modern and do the 1972 Topps US Presidents set. The 1952 Bowman and the 1956 Topps US Presidents are the same exact set. Im currently working on the 56 set in raw, approximately exmt condition. Im about 1/3 the way there. The 1972 set is the same up to Eisenhower and then it continues to modern of 1972. I have never owned any of the 1932 Caramel.

    I am partial to the gold embossed 1965 Topps Presidents and Famous Americans set.
    I am buying and trading for RC's of Wilt Chamberlain, George Mikan, Bill Russell, Oscar Robertson, Jerry West, and Bob Cousy!

    1932 Caramel is cool because of how they were distributed and how old they are BUT they are BBBBOOOORRRRRIIIIINNNNGGGG. Personally, I love the 52 Bowman or 56 Topps (same exact cards, slightly different backs, different size). Colorful with neat action drawings behind the head shops...and 3 historical cards Signing of the Declaration, Burning of the White House, and the George Washington one..I forget the title of that card.

    I agree with you. Although I have not made up my mind I think I will most likely do the 52 Bowman as a set and pick up a few of the 32 Caramel when I can. There are a lot of cards that I personally think look really good.

    Is there a story behind how 32 Caramel were distributed? I was looking and didn't really find much information.
