Whatever the reason why Topps did this is unknown to me, other then I'm certain that these cards were not issued in 1952 with their regular issue of 407
BB cards....nor were they issued with Bubble Gum. Perhaps, some one else on this forum knows why....and, can clue us in.

Thanks for the info, Ted. But I'm wondering, how is it known that the greys were issued later than 1952? Is it just the recollection of collectors who did not see tham in that year, but saw them at some later point?
