About 1952 Baseball Cards


The 1952 Topps set has earned its place in history.

The first major baseball card set by this iconic company that still produces cards today, the Topps 52 set was a landmark for its physical size and an instant hit with kids.

Today, it is one of the most collectible and highly sought-after series in existence. Collectors love the design of these cardboard works of art. Famous in part thanks to Mickey Mantle, who made his first-ever Topps appearance in the ultra-tough third series, the 1952 baseball card set also includes plenty of other Hall of Famers like Willie Mays, Jackie Robinson, Duke Snider, Warren Spahn, Eddie Mathews and others.

Few cards survive today in near mint condition, but just completing the set—or just a team set—in any grade, is enough of a challenge for most collectors.

This site is an ode to a classic American collectible as well as a shopping portal where collectors can focus in on Topps 52 cards—and nothing else. Take a peek at the checklist, then go after the cards you want. We’ve got them sorted by non-graded and graded listings for easy shopping.

We hope you enjoy your visit, pick out a few and bid or buy what makes you happy!
