after looking at the B&W photos on the "look familiar" thread here, i've come to the conclusion that the 1954 bowman is intentionaly colored as it is as to give it a different look than the '53s. IMO it gets little collector respect because it followed the '53 Bowman color set,which is heralded as the most beautiful post war set ever. do you agree or do you feel it is really not a very atractive set,hastily put together on the cheap and just poor colorization.i would especially like to hear comments from people who collected this set as a kid in 1954. what did you think when you first viewed these cards over 50 years ago???
