A couple of years ago, someone auctioned a '53 Bowman set on eBay. It didn't come with any scans, but I becamse suspicious because it was missing a few cards, and the cards that it was missing were in sequence. That doesn't seem particularly typical.

The seller claimed to be consigning the cards for the original collector, and told me they were being kept in a safe deposit box.

Eventually I got some scans from him and they had the same sort of huge borders that this card has. Actually, they were more like the left border, all the way around. Dramatically ugly.

I wonder if they were put out by the same company?

It is possible that this seller doesn't know what he's doing. He doesn't seem to be much of a card guy.
