Bowman N F L - 2013
25 cards per pack - 10 packs
4 autos and 1 relic per box!
I received the following:
148 base cards - 67% of the 220 set (110 vets and 110 rookies) - no duplicates!!
This issue is much the same as other Bowman issues - glossy front on a bright white stock with a hd digital action photo on the front. The reverse has stats and 'The Next Coming'. I like the division of the vets and rooks - 1-110 vet and 111 to 220 rooks... good job.
Inserts / Parallels
Where to start???
Ok - there are piles of parallels - black, blue, red, gold, orange, // black reflective, blue reflective, red reflective, gold reflective, orange reflective, // silver sparkle, red sparkle - I refer to them as reflective and not refractors because they are not chrome. Most are numbered - red #ed to 25, some 499, 399, 299, 199, and 99.... this box had a ton of inserts /parallels.
Die cut chromes and mini's..
3 diecuts
10 mini's
Check out this dude's hair - is that great or what?
Relic
Patrick Peterson #ed to 99
Autos
Box said I was to receive 4 but....
3 chrome autos
Arthur Brown
Desmond Trufant
Matt Elam - red - #ed 1/25
Mini / Collegiate
Zac Dysert
Donovan Carter
*******************
Bowman NFL is an excellent issue for the football fan. It has nearly everything - from vets to rookies, to nearly any kind of parallel you want. The player collector will have a field day chasing each of the various parallels of their favorite player or team.
My favorites - die cuts, and the sparkle variations. The sparkle variation is a bit hard to read the name of the player but they still look cool. I have always been partial to die cuts and these chrome die cuts do not disappoint.
Autos - Topps dun gud! Each auto is on the card and each one is blue Sharpee AND I received 5 autos not the stated 4.
This issue seems to be one that most will really enjoy and if the other boxes are like this one-- congratulations!!
Overall grade A++ excellent issue - excellent quality.
Go buy several boxes and send the Tebows to me - (If there are any.. I did not get one!)
