Default 1952-1960s Topps back variations

Collectors seem to collect all types of variations...print variations, image variations, DP print variations, back variations, etc. For me, the back variations are very intriguing.....while some back variations are no more than unintentional print variations or corrected information on the back, many more issues have "intentional" recurring factory variations due to changes in printing or changes in card stock used to print the cards on. I have been working my way through these different recurring factory print variations/use of different printing stock and wanted to see if I am missing any.

This list does not include print variations/corrections like the 57 Bakep, 61 Fairly, 66 Uecker, 67 Belinsky, etc.

Here is what I am working on:

1952 Topps: #s 1-80 Red/black backs, grey backs
1953 Topps: white/black printed bios #s 86-165 + #s 10, 44, 61, 72, 81
1954 Topps: #s 1-50 grey back
1956 Topps: WB/GB #s 1-180
1959 Topps: WB/GB #s 199-286
1960 Topps: WB/GB/Pure White #s 375-440
1963 Topps: lower series with goldenrod back
1966 Topps: bright backs from 6th series (also seen on 66 Topps FB cards)
1968 Topps: Goldenrod backs (MB win a card game cards x88)

Again, this list in not intended to include all of the one off back variations, but recurring variations due to different printing stock or print on the backs.
