1951 Bowman the unofficial ranking
Ok so I've been curious about the what are considered the best cards in the 1951 Bowman set. The top 3 and 4 seems obvious. It's more so after that . With a ton of star power and high numbers along with iconic images it makes it difficult to decide imo.
So what I'm asking is what do you think the top ten cards. You can list the highest value , you can list you personal favorites , or you can skip the first four Which I would believe to be mantle , mays, ford, Williams. I'm asking because I want to get all the hofers rookies from the set. Minus the mantle because it is out of reach for me .

Since a lot of the pictures on the 1951 Bowman set are just larger versions of the 1950 cards, I've always felt a little cheated by the set.

Dan,I absolutely love the Campanella from the set!
Imo it's his best looking card as most of his cards are heads shots. I personally prefer action photos . Rats, great list I hope to some more top tens ! Andy, the Thompson is sweet I like cards with great background images .

I think the Bobby Thomson and Ralph Branca cards from this set make a nice combination. I have them next to each other in my display.

I think this set is so awesome and would love to collect it. However, the Mantle scares me off. I am not sure I could ever afford one in the condition that would satisfy me. So I just admire from afar.

Unlike a lot of people I am very happy with nice reprint sets of the vintage Bowman sets.
