Description

1991 Bowman is a 704-card single-series set (produced by Topps) which most notably features 166 rookie cards. Bowman is a prospect driven product that wasn’t branded as such officially until 1997 when “Home of the Rookie Card” appeared on the boxes.

The most prominent rookie cards are of Jeff Bagwell, Chipper Jones, Ivan Rodriguez, Mike Mussina and Jim Thome. However, since virtually every card company also had these players in their set their Bowman rookie cards are valued and sought after the least. This has been established by Price Guide book values and graded card population reports as of 2011.

Most of the other rookie card players had either completely indistinguishable brief careers or never appeared in a major league game. (Noted in checklist)

1991 Bowman is the final year they use the brown ‘cardboard’ paper stock.

The set opens up with a 5-card subset tribute to Rod Carew in light of his 3000 career hits. The set features two other subsets of note. One is the Silver Slugger Award Winners. This is the first time that a card company devoted cards to recognizing this award that had be handed out since 1980. The other recognizes minor league MVPs. Each subset features a gold emblem in the front left corner. This is one of the earliest major issue sets to feature gold.

The set is arranged in random team order by division. (AL East, AL West, NL East, NL West)

The card fronts are non-glossy and feature a color player photograph with a white border. The card backs are unfinished, mostly horizontal, and feature the player stats against opposing teams in 1990.
