Not really unusual....the 5 players listed (Jackie, Mickey, Campy, Bobby and Pee Wee) are all Hi # cards. I collected these cards
as a kid, and these cards were not available until the Fall of 1952.

Mantle was having a great season in 1952. By the Summer of 1952, Mickey was becoming the most popular player in Baseball.
