Looking for info. on 1952 Bowman Baseball card wihout advertising on back. Salesman's sample?

Question

Hello. I have found a 1952 Bowman Baseball #101 Mickey Mantle. It resembles every other picture of a 1952 Bowman Mantle I have found except that the reverse has no advertising info. The back has blank spaces above and below the "No. 101 in the 1952 series" and "picture cards". What is missing is the offer for a baseball hat for 5 wrappers and a dollar. I know Topps had saleman's samples around this time did Bowman as well? Also could the 1952 Bowman have been issued with 2 different designed backs - certainly other sets and years did.
Thank you for any information.

Answer 1

My guess is that it's legit if it says #101 on it. If that's the case, I'll give you $600 for it.

Answer 2

Wow. Sounds like a good find if it's a real card. Hope it is. : )
