1950 Bowman Pete Castiglione (card # 201) Rookie Card |
So, with a little exchange of some cash, I liberated them.
1950 Bowman Dave Philley (card # 127) |
Probably a bit of an impulse purchase on my part, but they looked so lonely.
Getting these cards has put me on the quest to do a Topps type set. Not all # 5 cards. That's ridiculous. Just one card from each of the main sets each year. I don't care what series it is from. No Updates. No Baseball America. No shiny. Just a base card from the base set. I have to figure out what I need.
And yes, I know that I spelled Bowman wrong in the title. I was looking for the plural. And I know that it might seem strange that I've decided to put the type collection together after showing Bowman cards. And I know that I'm very late to this form of type collecting.
Better late than never. Those are beautiful vintage cards!
ReplyDeleteFYI... I was there last week over the holiday and he has a whole binder of 50s Bowman that he keeps in the back. (I'm assuming that your talking about the same shop you gave me directions to when I was in Knoxville before) I grabbed only one card out of it (because Christmas is coming and my money has to go somewhere besides cards) a 49 Bowman Johnny Pesky RC.
