In reguards to player selection, didnt the players have contracts with each company? If you signed with Bowman, you didnt have a Topps card and vice versa. I thought Bowman had the better players under contract at first.

A few did both sets. Willie Mays and Eddie Matthews had Bowman and Topps issues in 54 and 55.

Going back to what Todd said, here's an example of how the game, and the hobby have changed. Here's a screenie of a prospect profile I do every year now before the start of the season. I'm just some guy sitting at home watching the game, buying cards, and I not only have access to, but religiously read scouting reports, forecasts, etc, in addition to doing fantasy baseball like so many other Americans.
