53 Bowman Color or 53 Topps?
1953 Bowman Color or 1953 Topps? All things being equal (all cards graded NM 7) what set would you prefer? I would have to go with the Bowman Color after debating with a friend of mine but it would be a hard choice. I thought that it was a good question to ponder, great sets!

I'd take the Bowman's in a heartbeat. I've never seen a set with better photos ...

This is a bit of a toss up for me as well! I am also a Topps collector, but over the last 2 years have been working on putting together the 1954 Topps set and I have picked up singles from both of these sets along the way. Both sets are beautiful in there own way, though I do not think that I could pick one over the other, as I would like to have a set of each at some point!

In my opinion its the '53 Topps Paige verses the '53 Bowman Pee Wee Reese. My two favorite cards in my personal collection. Other than that I'll probably take the Bowman but definatly the closest between the two companies in any one year.

Great topic! Both are great sets but I prefer the Topps. I love the Bowman photography but I like the brighter colors on the Topps paintings. All of the cards look great in that set IMO (with the possible exception of the Whitey Ford card that makes him look like he's fighting the worst case of constipation ever experienced). And I do like being able to tell who the player is without having to look at the back of the card.
