When Topps put out the big hardcover book with all their baseball cards, they used the reprint images for the 52's except for the five that never got reprinted originally. You can seen the difference quite easily.

Also, If memory serves, Topps advertised 35,000 sets were printed of the 1952 reprint. I may be wrong on that and thought I had a scan of the announcement (which I can't find right now) but that figure sticks in my head.
