2006 Bowman Heritage Baseball Forum

Thanks for the quick resolution to the "Chrome" parallel, as usual two highly respected and knowledgeable individuals responded and acted.

Here is another issue - I don't think a true "White" parallel https://www.tcdb.com/Checklist.cfm/sid/21112/2006-Bowman-Heritage---White?PageIndex=1#2548208 exists of the Base set.  Yes there is a White parallel of the Signs of Greatness inserts but I do not think there is one of the 300-card base set.  The ones I found listed on selling sites are owner identified as a "white" VAR.  Even the one card that is on here with an image is less "white" than the one pictured inthe Base set.  There is absolutely nothing to be able to identify a card if it is a base card or a "white" (possible parallel) card. By the way, the image that is on here was loaded by one of our reknowned members for accuracy in his image uploads 

Everything I have seen says the entire base set has a white parallel. They were inserted at 1:6 packs so 4 per box. I went through multiple sell sheets, BCP, etc. and all are saying the same. The problem, supposedly, is tha tthe white is hard to actually see. When you have one in hand it washes out some of the other colors, almost like having to hold a baseb and a parallel next to each other to compare. 

Didn't find much on eBay, but did here

Yup, found some for sale but the Hobby sources don't list one (at least not the main one I use). There is a short fourm on Beckett's where one knowledgeable individual says Topps messed up with the "white" idea.

I just don't know as a collector how you would know if you had one or the other.  I definitely would not buy any online that advertises as a "white" parallel just because the seller says it is.
