The 1952 Topps James E. Runnels Black Back #2 is a Baseball card (Black Back parallel) released in 1952. Ungraded copies carry a market value of about $18.46.
An ungraded copy is worth around $18.46, a PSA 9 around $8,855.00, a PSA 10 (Gem Mint) around $10,626.00, a pristine BGS 10 around $13 and814.00. That's roughly a 576× premium for a gem-mint copy over raw — one of the clearest signals that condition-sensitive buyers dominate this card's market.
Is it worth grading?
With raw copies near $18.46 and top grades reaching $10,626.00, grading a sharp copy of this card can clearly pay for itself — the spread comfortably covers a typical ~$25.00 grading fee. The catch: only submit copies with strong centering, clean corners, and unmarked surfaces, because anything below a 9 usually erases the math.
