Description: Now 75 YRs OLd, this 1st YR Bowman Football Card Set has firmly gripped Everything th' word LEGENDARY has to define in what our hobby can offer... Th' BESSst... All cards have been identified by number, name, and condition... They range from poor to Near Mint... Photos provided I best did and can soon improve upon... Feel free to message questions! !! ...As a Long term Adventure in those years ago, I set out to construct th' MON$tRMEGAMiGhtY EYESwide headSPiNNiNG JAWdROPPN dOubL bLACk SMOkeCLOud tRAiNWhi$tL EARS iN dead $iLeNCe... 1St EVER Bowman Football Card Set! !! ... One card a month goes 9 YRs, and I remember a few times racing closer, just as other months along th' way fell back,in those vacuum brain ruffles juSt juSt... Re$huffL and bring yet another... And another... Card into th' eagerly twitchin' trembLN PAW... uNtiL NOw... As they $wim baCk to $ea... Eventually... ... Now th' Set has turned 75 years old, as th' 2023 NFL Season begins... ... For collectors trying to build th' full 108 card set, I can describe it that th' commons are fun to find even for low prices in stunning conditions, while a few seem more rare than some of th' SP 'Short Print' cards... Of th' 108 of them, 36 are SP.... They are #'s: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27, 30, 33, 36 39, 42, 45, 48, 51, 54, 57, 60, 63, 66, &9, 72, 75, 78, 81, 84, 87, 90, 93, 96, 99, 102, 105, 108... Some of th' SP are $Ooo RARe it took years to see one for $ALe... Not many of these sets seem possible to build today... I remember at one point trying to accept that three cards would just never be available.. Those were th' Gran Finale... By one left, th' wait was nearly three years for number one o eight... Then, ViCtORY! !! ... The Complete 1o8 Card Set features many Rookie Stars and Hall of Famers! !! ... Th' 1St Bowman Football Set had an uneven distribution of all players in its production, resulting in 1/3 of all cards reduced dramatically from th' other 2/3... These 36 Cards are called "Short Print" because of their incredible scarcity... At my time I researching these thru October of 2o23, there were tow of them with only one single listing available, several with 2, 3, and 4 listings available, and a few had between 5 and 1o... There were only a few SP with more than ten out there... Conditions vary now after 75 YRs have passed since its release, and I feel surprised really, to have had better luck constructing my set over th' years! !! ... Aside from 36 SP Strong farming th' field, there are Numerous additional Superstars of high values! !! ... I have Li$td'm all to reflect an advantage from having to "$hop Around", and feel free to message any offers... We have gotten a lot of attention on some already! !! ONLY 1o TEAMS Were in th' NFL back in 1947/1948! !! ... They were: Chicago Bears # 3 (SP), 23, 36 (SP), 42 (SP), 65, 69 (SP), 95, 1o7 - Eight Cards (4 are SP! !!)
