Because I took a quick glance, made an honest mistake and some forum members - Like Republican Masshole - are raging assholes.

I guess I'll go back to lurking and leaving posting to the MENSA geniuses w/ cardboard IQs of 160+.

Welcome KT. You should get some good feedback.

Those '58 cards are way nicer than those blurry scans from the pics I saw. . They have been In binders a long time so probably not Mint but they look fantastic from the pics I saw. Good luck and take your time.

The first photo is of 1953 Topps baseball.

The Roy Campanella in the upper left corner is quite valuable as well... maybe $30-$200 depending on condition.

The second photo with the yellow cards, those are 1958 Topps Baseball.

In general, any of the bigtime iconic stars n those sets will be quite valuable:

Mickey Mantle
Willie Mays
Jackie Robinson (53)
Roberto Clemente (58),
Ted Williams (58)
Hank Aaron

If I were you, you can sell to me for a few bucks... lol ... or better yet, take the time to go thru and do a thorough inventory. You have some valuable cards there.
Actually the first photo is from the 1953 Topps Archives set, released in 1991. The giveaway is the 9-pocket sheets used. The original set was bigger and fit in 8-pocket sheets

The 1958's look very nice. Dodger collectors are pretty die-hard.

I thought the borders were kind of big and all were centered

Topps made the 1953 Archives set in 1991 and a 1954 set in 1994.

Is there a discernible way to identify them as reprints? I always wondered that about the 52 Topps reprint sets as well.

P.S. Welcome to the site, KT.

They are standard size and not the size of the 1953-54 originals. I believe they are glossy also.

Yeah, those 1953 Topps cards are definitely from the 1991 Archives set. On the left below is the Dixie Howell card from the OP's picture, followed by a legitimate 1953 Dixie Howell in a PSA holder, and a 1991 Archives Dixie Howell. Notice the much wider borders on the 1991 Archives, which match those on the OP's card.

I don't see you raising your hand helping anyone. Honest mistake.

Better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than opens ones mouth and be proved one.
