1951 Bowman the unofficial ranking

[darkhorse9]

Since a lot of the pictures on the 1951 Bowman set are just larger versions of the 1950 cards, I've always felt a little cheated by the set.

Its funny because for me I went after the the ford rookie and mays rookie first. Both of these card are not in the 1950 set . I know the Campanella is a different picture as well and a better image . But for the most part it seems like a lot of laziness on the behalf of the Bowman company.

Having seen it up close and personal, and having had to stack some of it, walk over and around parts of it, and dig some of it out of boxes....I agree Irv. Best post war collection I have ever seen.

I would include the Piersall Rookie in a top ten.

It's OK, if you like that sort of thing.


Hi Bob!

In all seriousness, that's a great top 10. I would maybe replace Ashburn with either Doby or Preacher Roe.
