I love this set but it was a market bust for Bowman in 1953 in terms of sales versus the Topps offering

The Topps sets are Flexichromes.
![]() Credit: http://www.thetoppsarchives.com/2011...rome-away.html The Topps cards are black and white images colored with the Flexichrome process. That is why they have the character of photorealistic paintings rather than photographs. The Bowmans are Kodachrome color photos reproduced as prints.
