Default What's the Deal with the 1952 Bowman Casey Stengels?
Posted By: Ted Zanidakis

This was touched on in another thread a few months back. Apparently, there was a find of approx. 50 near mint Stengel's.
This is a tough to find (in nice shape) Hi (#217) card in the 52B set. over the years there have been such finds of other
52B cards that are also difficult in near mint condition. In 1982, I came across a find of 22 Joe Collins (#181) cards. This
card, like the Stengel are tough since they occupied the upper left corner on a 36-card sheet. Therefore, cards like Collins
and Stengel were more susceptible to dinged corners, etc.
