Item Description
2-1/8x3-1/8". The 1952 Bowman set consists of 252 cards. Each card front shares similarities with the 1951 Bowman entry, with a color art reproduction of a player photograph and facsimile autograph on the front. The set has many future HOF'ers but is anchored by cards of Mickey Mantle and Willie Mays.  Though the set is without any known variations or scarcities, the low numbers (#s 1-217) are somewhat easier to secure than the high numbers (#s 218-252).

Edwin Donald "Duke" Snider, nicknamed "the Silver Fox" and "the Duke of Flatbush", was an American professional baseball player. Primarily a center fielder, he spent most of his Major League Baseball (MLB) career playing for the Brooklyn / Los Angeles Dodgers (1947-1962), later playing one season each for the New York Mets (1963) and San Francisco Giants (1964). Snider was named to the National League (NL) All-Star roster eight times and was the NL Most Valuable Player (MVP) runner-up in 1955. In his 16 out of 18 seasons with the Dodgers, he helped lead the Dodgers to six World Series, with victories in 1955 and 1959. He was elected to the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 1980.
