Year: 1999
Set: Bowman (Rate)
Card: #296 Jason Marquis
“ I like this design. I also like the blue foil. I wish they had returned Bowman to the NBA earlier so I could have collected this design. Also, great scan. It looks like the cards do in hand and that is the best kind of scan. ” -Billy Kingsley
“ Too much border, and it's ugly as well. ” -Doc Floyd
“ Nice card. Marquis was traded from Atlanta to the Cardinals for JD Drew. St. Louis wouldn't complete the trade until Atlanta added a prospect: one Adam Wainwright. Not a bad deal for the Cardinals. ” -Brimose
“ Love the scouting reports on the backs of these cards. ” -carthage44
“ A pretty nice scan of a card that probably doesn't scan well. This is one of the last Bowman designs I liked. Marquis stuck around for a solid 15yr career, despite never putting up fantastic numbers. ” -dilemma19
“ Don't like the front, too much going on. Never did get into the modern Bowman. ” -CluelessJoe
“ For the most part I am OK with this Bowman Design, except the vertical faux signature. I've got some of these of my PC teams (Orioles/Expos) not sure if I have the full teams or not. This is one of those sets that I almost want to try to complete the full thing, but sort of don't. ” -captkirk42
“ Tough on the eyes, but that I think is because it doesn't scan well. It looks like it could be great in hand. I would have to defer to those who have some. I never liked Bowman backs though. ” -muskie027
