tips for buying '52 parkhurst gordie howe
 

i'm looking for an early howe to get signed, and i prefer the crude parkhurst look over the more polished topps issue (it's the caramel collector in me). i was mainly looking for psa graded to be safe, but these don't come around often in my grade (3-4). i see a few raws but afraid to dip my toe in, are there any signs i should be looking for to separate the real thing from reprints?
