Three complete sets of 1952 Topps baseball cards are being broken up and sold as part of a 4,000-lot auction currently underway on eBay.
The sets being broken include a mix of graded and ungraded cards. The three Mickey Mickey Mantle cards are all authenticated and include an SGC 30, BVG 2.5 and PSA 1. The listings include an SGC 70 Jackie Robinson, PSA 4 and 4.5 copies of Willie Mays and multiple examples of the other major stars in the set.
The condition of the cards in the three sets offered by Invest in Baseball varies but they are generally lower to mid-grade. There are, however, 42 PSA 8s and 56 cards rated PSA 7 as well as several cards graded 70 and above by SGC.
A complete Master Set of 1952 Topps is among those being broken. Both red and black back variations of all cards #1-80 are included along with the Johnny Sain and Joe Page variations, the Frank Campos ‘black star’ and the Frank House with the yellow-colored Tiger mascot image.
You can see the 1952 listings here.
The company is also breaking several PSA Registry sets in football and baseball including 1957 Topps baseball, 1962 and 1972 Topps football (including high numbers) and three different Philadelphia Gum football sets.
Over 2,300 PSA graded cards are included in the auction. Listings begin closing this weekend and continue through early next week.
