Start This Set
Annual production of Proof Sets did not really take off until the mid 1950s, so the sets from the early 1950s are considerably scarcer than those of just a few years later. Cameo frosting (DC) is seldom seen on these sets, and of the current Registry sets, only the top two have any at all – and they have only one each.

Notes: This set has bonuses. Please see the Set Composition for a listing.
