Default '54 BOWMANS

Posted By: boxingcardman

Furillo and Reese. Dead centered, stellar colors, booming gloss, etc. I wanted them in those black holders for display.

I'd say some of the 1954s are spectacular, even better than the 1953s, which I always thought were overrated, but then I prefer some identification on the card fronts. Others, however, are crappy looking. I love the Reese, Furillo, Minoso, Roe, Mantle, Williams. I think the Campy is ridiculous; looks like he's wearing a beanie. Mays is washed out. Newcombe is too cartoony; looks like he's pitching in Toon Town.


Edited to Add:

I got them back; they are now in SGC 88 holders. The colors just mesmerize me on these two; never seen any 1954s so vibrant before.
