Any love for vintage bowman? Your thoughts?

My favorite Bowman is the 55 set by far. As an oddball project I put them together in lower grade with only purchases/trades with fellow Net54 members. Took me about 2 years and was a lot of fun. I will say I wasn't a fan of the prices the umpire cards sell for.

I'll second that on the umpires, and even a couple of the SP higher number commons. But those umpire cards killed me!

Absolutely love early Bowman cards, especially '51 - '53. The '50s are great too, but I wish they were larger. I think early Bowman are the most attractive cards ever made.

A lot of great cards shown in this thread. Here are a few of my favorites.
