The Best 1952 Bowman Baseball Cards – Highest Selling Prices

Hi everyone, it’s Matt from Graded Card Investor  and today I’m sharing the latest list of the most valuable 1952 Bowman baseball cards sold.

1952 Bowman Baseball Set:

  • Comprises 252 cards, each 2-1/8″ x 3-1/8″.
  • Card fronts similar to 1951 Bowman, featuring color art reproductions and facsimile autographs.
  • Key players include Mickey Mantle, Willie Mays, Yogi Berra, Roy Campanella, Stan Musial, and others.
  • No known variations or scarcities in the set.
  • Lower numbered cards (#s 1-217) are easier to find than higher numbers (#s 218-252).

Remember, the market is always changing, so focus on the card grades – often the image shows a PSA 8, but the highest sale might be of a higher grade. Generally, this list is in ascending order of value, starting with the least expensive and ending with the most valuable card.

Final Thoughts

When assessing 1952 Bowman baseball cards, their condition is key to determining value, with near-mint and mint cards fetching high prices due to their scarcity in top condition. Collectors should consider PSA 7 or 6 grades for affordability, while those on a budget might go for PSA 2 or 3 cards, which are much cheaper.

It’s important to research thoroughly, invest wisely, and be cautious of counterfeits. Keep checking for updates and share your thoughts on top 1952 Bowman cards for collecting. Thanks for reading, and enjoy your card collecting journey!
