Nice group of '52 Gray Backs
I was going through old store stock looking for 50's miscuts and off registers to add to my PC. Good news: I found a top/bottom extreme mc, a left/right mc, and an off register '52(s).
Better news: I found a nice group of gray backs. I don't know much about these and I don't want to post in a years old thread. I think these are neat and wanted to share them.

Yellow Tiger House?
Found this mixed in as well. Looks yellow to me. Also has the green at the neck. It's a cream colored back.

Gray and Yellow
As you alluded there are a couple of good threads on the yellow House and it's different versions, and the 52 gray back "Canadians" in here. There are a bunch of avid collectors of the 52 set in general and all it's permutations here as well.
Very nice to make a "find" on home turf. If you had found a Reiser several people here would already be on the road looking for you :-) Last edited by ALR-bishop; 09-16-2015 at 06:53 AM. |

I don't care about the plain old boring grey backs lets see the cool off register card.

There is actually one LESS Reiser. PSA mislabeled a cream back as a gray back!

Wow! Nice find.
That's definitely a yellow tiger you've got there, as I own one as well. I've seen a few gray back yellow tigers, which reveals a lot about the making of the cards. Given that there are yellow tigers and regular tigers for both white and gray back cards, it would seem to suggest that the two paper stocks were intermingled? I wonder if this could indicate that the gray backs came about perhaps because they had some leftover stock from the previous printing that they used up.

House
And you need the yellow tiger with the red tongue. And does the yellow tiger with red tongue come in grey back, or just the yellow ?

In case you are serious.

I was serious, I love the off register cards. The bigger the print offset the better. Thank you for posting the picture.

Off beat
Leon had a bunch of them he posted in some of the 52 threads. I think he sold them in his recent auction. My favorite was the Robin Roberts overprints that someone posted in here and shows up on eBay from time to time

Ted - Actually the number is correct on PSA. There is a grey back Reiser in a PSA holder that is not labeled a grey back. So the number is accurate, but the grading of those cards is incorrect.
Cheers, Patrick |

I do too. I'm trying to get a factory diamond cut, l/r mc, top/bottom mc, blank back, wrong back, and off register for each type in post war. I know there is a thread about print vars.. Should we start one for off registers?
