1952 Topps Pete Reiser Gray Back on Ebay

[bobsbbcards]

Hmmm, a Pete Reiser gray back PSA 5 or:

1) Buy lunch for 7,000 days at Chick-fil-A(TM)
2) Purchase 1.5 Honda Odysseys with that backup camera thingy and fold-down rear seats
3) Save right around 850 children from starvation in Nigeria, Tanzania, or Ethiopia

I suppose you might still have money enough for a PSA 5 non-gray back after any of those alternative expenditures (not sure about that).

I'm sorely tempted to try to bid on this card, but on the other hand, I don't really collect gray backs (yet) and this card really ought to go to someone trying to finish out their set.

On a related note, the one card I have not seen come up for sale is a gray back Billy Martin. Now that is one I WOULD buy.

I own zero gray backs but I'd sure love to have that one for my 52 Topps collection!

Sadly, not a chance I will be bidding, however.

Neither of those are actual gray backs.
But good for those who get taken by the flip.

It's funny you say that as I was also thinking the same thing, but due to my lack of knowledge/experience, and the fact I have never seen one in hand, I just assumed the flip was likely correct?

In my opinion, the front looks more grey than the back, but maybe that is a known fact and has been seen before or it could be the scan?

When I first seen it, I thought I have cards, even outside of the #131-190 series/range that look more grey than that, but I assume it has been proven, beyond a reasonable doubt that greys only exist within that, #131-#190 range?

(E-Bay Reiser and some of my backs)

I ended the listings so I can relist them with the "gray back" in the title..
so they go back up tonight at the same time they were listed for before.

Very well said.
