Description
UP FOR SALE IS THE ENTIRE LOW NUMBER SET OF 1952 TOPPS 1-310.  THIS IS, AS THEY SAY THE HOLY GRAIL OF BASEBALL CARD SETS.  I SPENT MUCH TIME AND MONEY COLLECTING THEM AND THE THOUGHT OF GETTING THE HIGH NUMBERS IS DAUNTING AT THIS POINT, ALTHOUGH THIS COLLECTION IS A SAFER PLACE TO PUT YOUR MONEY THAN ANY KIND OF MARKET.  I WOULD GRADE THIS SET AS VG-EX AND THERE ARE SOME THAT ARE OBVIOUSLY BETTER AND A FEW THAT ARE WORSE. I FOCUSED ON MAKING SURE THAT NONE OF THE CARDS HAVE CREASES ALTHOUGH THERE ARE STILL A COUPLE CARDS THAT ARE IN NOT THE BEST CONDITION WITH A CREASE HERE OR THERE.  I WOULD PUT THIS NUMBER BELOW 10 CARDS THOUGH.  ALL OF THE STARS ARE IN VG-EX CONDITION OR BETTER UNLESS STATED LOWER BY THEIR OFFICIAL GRADE.  THERE ARE 30+ CARDS THAT ARE GRADED WHICH INCLUDE 296 - RED ROLFE - PSA 8 (OC) 218 - CLYDE MCCULOOUGH - PSA 8 (OC) 261 - WILLIE MAYS - SGC 70 5.5 216 - RICHIE ASHBURN - PSA 5 302 - MAX SURKONT - PSA 5 41 - BOB WELLMAN - GAI 5 163 -STAN ROJEK - PSA 5 133 - AL WIDMAR - PSA 4.5 227 - JOE GARAGIOLA - PSA 4 91 - RED SCHOENDIENST - PSA 4 26 - MONTE IRVIN - PSA 4 78 - ELLIS KINDER - PSA 4 266 - MURRAY DICKSON - PSA 4 84 - VERN STEPHENS - PSA 4 268 - BOB LEMON - PSA 4 29 - TED KLUSZEWSKI - PSA 4 67 - ALLIE REYNOLDS - PSA 4 57 - ED LOPAT - PSA 4 3 - HANK THOMPSSON - PSA 4 15 - JOHNNY PESKY - PSA 4 116 - GENE HERMANSKI - PSA 4 212 - NED GARVER - PSA 4 121 - GUS NIARHOS - PSA 4 162 - DEL CRANDELL - PSA 4 258 -STEVE GROMEK - PSA 4 49 -JOHN SAIN (COR) -GAI 3.5 214-JOHNY HOPP - PSA 3.5 33 - WARREN SPAHN - GAI 3 191 - YOGI BERRA - GAI 2 THE YOGI LOOKS MUCH BETTER THAN A 2 IN MY OPINION. IF THIS SET DOES NOT SELL I WILL PROBABLY SEND OFF MAJORITY OF CARDS TO PSA TO GET GRADED.  THE OTHER STARS ARE IN STRONG OR BETTER CONDITION. PAFKO WOULD GRADE AT 4 OR BETTER AS WELL AS SNYDER, MARTIN, FELLER, RIZZUTO ETC.... ALL OF THE CARDS ARE THERE.   I AM ABLE TO ANSWER QUESTIONS REGARDING SPECIFIC CARDS AND INCLUDE SUPERIOR PICTURES OF SPECIFIC CARDS UPON REQUEST.  THIS IS A GREAT SET THAT HAS A HIGH BOOK VALUE OF 26755 AND LOW BOOK VALUE OF 15700.  I HAVE THE BUY IT NOW PRICE AT1/3 OF HIGH BOOK.  I WILL ADD PERCENTAGES OF CONDITIONS TOMORROW UPON REVIEWING OF ALL CARDS AT A CLOSE LEVEL.  I WILL ALSO LIST CARDS THAT ARE PR-FR WHICH I SUSPECT ARE FEW.    BEST OF LUCK AND I LOOK FORWARD TO YOUR QUESTIONS.     On Nov-25-08 at 19:17:10 PST, seller added the following information: After reviewing the cards I would rank them in this manner 10% would be considered 1-3, 70% would be considered 4 and 20% would be consider 5 and above. This is not a professional grade but it is my opinion comparing conditions of ungraded cards to those of cards that are graded. I truly feel that there are some 7-8's in the 5+ grade but hate to promise anything. The only fault with some that I think would be 8+ is centering and it is not awful centering, maybe 70/30 I will show you a specific card if you have questions regarding them. Notable numbers in the 1-3 range are: 31 zernial, 310 metkovich, 300, 299, 281, 233. The remainder have book value of $60 or less. Notable numbers in 5+ range. 80, 289 tommy homes, 282, 277 wynn, 274 branca, 246 kell, 243 doby, 201, 195 minoso, 64, 23, 36 hodges (OC), 11 Rizzuto, 55 boone, 59 roberts. The remaining cards have a value of $70 or less. The remainder of the star fall into the 4 range including billy martin, bob feller and duke snider. This is definitely not a set of fillers. Some of the ones I think are 4's probably could go to a 5 and alternatively to a 3 but I feel most are strong 4's and none are falling to a 2 or worse. I would imagine that if each card was sold separately the total amount paid for them would reach the buy it now price or higher as that is nearly what I have paid and that is buying many at bulk for a discounted rate. I have done all of the hard work and paying shipping on individual cards and paying overprice at card shows, all of the labor of collecting them for you. If there are any questions, please contact me.On Nov-26-08 at 09:42:17 PST, seller added the following information:Other cards that are graded by PSA that are not mentioned above. 308 Aloma PSA 5, 295 Cavarretta PSA4, 287 Bilko, PSA 4, 298 Ross PSA 4, 297 Seminick PSA 3. Look at my feedback regarding baseball card sales. My description has always been above satisfactory for the purchasers of my cards. Buy with confidence is what I am trying to say.
