Easter Bunny brought a slew of 52's this weekend

I wanted to share a collection I acquired over the weekend. There are 47 PSA-graded 1952 Topps cards, most of them 6's with a few 5's, as well as another 30 or so 1952 cards, some of them high numbers. The person also had 16 1911 T201 Mecca folders, 4 of which had HOFers.

Some of the star power is pictured below.

Question: How do you think the Berra would be graded? It would definitely get a PD qualifier, but what grade would it get beyond that? How about the very off-register Mathewson Mecca?

    Tony,

    Love the 52's and awesome star power. I love the 52's with the yellow background. Those mecca's are great too. I think they are a very undervalued set.

    Feller was nice; someone came in and bought it this morning image

    The Mecca cards are tallboys that have a built-in fold. The top fold has images of different players on each side, and the bottom fold has a player's body on one side. The card displays so that you can leave it open and see one player, or fold it down and see the other player. For instance, this is the back of the Collins; you can see Frank Baker on the back, who when folded creates a new image:

    Nice cards Tony, I would say in the 4 to 5 range on the Berra. Never have seen a print flaw like that. The Martin should net some good cash. Doug
