Review Bowman N F L - 2013

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!)

Nice review.

Can I put in a request for the Barkley (and any other Eagles). No football to trade yet (IE, no Tebows), but do have some Rays from Series II topps 2013.

Thanks.

Not 100% sure, but I believe Sandcastle is Deion Sanders - think it was a draft commercial?

Thanks for the info on Sandcastle.... It was the only one with the NFL logo and not a team logo.

Yes you may have Barkley and I'll see what other Eagles I can find.

Post them as free cards.

Interested in the geno orange and the arthur brown au. I know the sandcastle base card is sp, so you might follow up on the mini as well

Posted up. Much appreciated. Thank you.

Could use the Polamalu and any other Steelers. Plmk what I can get for you. Thanks Butch

I'd be interested in any Packers/Badgers you pulled, especially the Montee Ball.
Thanks, Dave

Wow, now I know where all of the color went out of my Bowman Baseball boxes!

Hello Duane,
I can use the Jones-Drew die cut. lmk.

Duane,

I am interested in any Bers you pulled. Let me know if you pulled any.

Jeff

Miguel Maysonet? Card 156, I believe. Stony Brook's first football card!

Thanks for the review Duane.

I really don't like cards where the team logo on the uniform is blanked out. If you can't get NCAA licensing, then picture the players in their new NFL uniform. Topps dropped the ball on this one!

PS-LMK if you pulled any of these 111 132 151
