Yeah, thanks, Leon: Always have loved the '52 Bowmans because they were the first set I collected as a wide-eyed kid looking for Boston Braves. Man, opening the five-cent waxpacks at the corner store and seeing all those duplicates of Del Rice, Clyde McCullough, et al, that seemed to always be in the third series packs. Never saw a Mantle or Hodges or any other star, though -- wonder if Bowman was manipulating the contents even that early in the spring.
