1952 Gift Ideas

While The Greatest Show on Earth won the Academy Award for Best Picture, I like Singin' in the Rain (if they like musicals) and High Noon (if they like westerns) better to give someone as a movie from 1952.

When looking for sports gifts, It's easiest to find baseball stuff in 1952..

1952 World Series
In the 1952 World Series it was New York Yankees vs Brooklyn Dodgers. If you guessed that the Yankees won, you'd be right! Gifts relating to the World Series in 1952 are especially cool if someone is a Yankees fan, or a Dodgers fan.

1952 Topps Mickey Mantle Card
There's a 1952 Topps Mickey Mantle 'Rookie' card that's worth a lot of money. It may not technically be a 'rookie' card since there was a Mickey Mantle card in 1951 by Bowman (but the Bowman card doesn't seem to be worth as much).

I'm thinking that unless you are rich, you probably won't be getting this Mickey Mantle card for someone's birthday gift, but I thought I'd include it here in case someone can, and it's also interesting.

You could get them a coin (or coins) from 1952, and a little box to display the coin in.

Here's a box you could get to display a coin in: Single Coin Wood Display Box and then put a 1952 coin in it before you give it to them.
