Year: 1991

“ It's probably time that I forgive Bowman for its slightly larger size in 1989. ” -vanstryland

“ I won't apologize for this: I love both 1990 and 1991 Bowman. In fact, I recently bought a hand-collated '90 set for $2. And I'd do it again! ” -mkaz80

“ Back when these came out I remember liking this set. It has not aged well, in my opinion. Very boring front and the back is probably one of the worst of the time. ” -davidhandberry

“ Not a fan of the card. Cutting off the Dibble like that just seems wierd and the stats on the back just seem to merge into a mess. ” -jeffzcubfan

“ Wish I would have collected more of these back in the day. They weren't great, but weren't bad. This was in my heyday and I think with all the sets coming out all at once, I had to tap out somewhere. ” -muskie027

“ Probably about to drill some hitter in the back ” -volbox

The stats on the back remind me of the team cards from the 60s'. Great on team cards, terrible on individuals.

As someone else said back in the day these were great, they havn't aged too well, not terrible but not that good either. It is just sort of Blah on front and back takes some getting used to, then again the first few Bowman revival sets were like that. I liked them better than later Bowman digging for prospects sets they have been having since the late 1990s.
