Presented is a very consistent mid to upper grade 1952 Bowman Football Large Set. This set is the king of all post war football sets. It offers collectors many challenges considering they are always trying to fill the gaps and replace cards with upgrades. Highlights of this set include # 1 Van Brocklin EX, # 2 Graham EX (oc), 16 Gifford VG light wrinkle on back, 17 Tittle NM, 30 Baugh EX, 78 Layne VG-EX, 83 Perry EX, 85 Robustelli VG-EX (oc) 142 Landry VG-EX (oc), and 144 Lansford rookie SP SGC 86 NM+ 7.5 -- this card is a real beauty, outstanding registration and coloring and strong corners and edges. The balance of the set breaks down as follows, 15% NM, 30% EX-MT, 30% EX, and 25% slightly lesser. For the most part the cards are well centered throughout, centering issues have been known to plague this set and one will find cards which are noticeably, off-center.
