The 1952 Topps Baseball set is the king of post-war cards. And because one of my passions is finding and sharing original photos used to create classic cards, I thought I would combine the two and develop the ultimate destination for the original photographs used for the 1952 set. And, because many of the photos used for the 1952 Topps set were used for other sets, I figured I’d add in-era cross over cards as well.
