A few of my favorites:





I used to not care for Bowmans, but a few years ago, there was a large collection of signed ones being broken up that all had trimmed borders, and I decided to go after the Red Sox. When I got them in hand, I was blown away by the artwork, and the trimmed borders made the colors pop. I've since picked up a bunch more; these were just the only two I have available images of right now.

I went with these. Many cut up cards turned into the Mantle and May's.

The 4 50 Papais

One of my favorite Mantles, is his 52 Bowman that I own. Very underrated in my opinion and hell of a lot cheaper than his Topps equivalent!
