Our Box Break
Bowman Cards
These cards have a black border surrounding the card with a RC logo on the top right corner. A few of the top rookies we pulled were Carlos Santana, Mike Stanton, Domonic Brown, Starlin Castro, Drew Stubbs, and Ian Desmond. The other draft picks and prospects are featured with a white border, a 1st Bowman Card logo on the top left corner, and a silver facsimile of their signature on the bottom of the card. Also included in this product are USA Baseball cards featuring players who are 16 and under. These cards have the American flag in the background.
Parallel Card
We pulled a USA Baseball blue parallel card of Troy Conyers. This card is similar to the base USA Baseball card except it has a blue border. The card is serial numbered #305/399.
Bowman Chrome Cards
Chrome cards of the base rookies, draft picks, and prospects. A few of the top rookies we pulled were Buster Posey, Austin Jackson, and Brian Matusz. You get 2 Bowman Chrome cards per pack.
Refractors
Chrome cards of the base rookies, draft picks, and prospects with a refractor tint. This is a favorite of collectors every year. We pulled 3 refractors in this box. We got a base refractor of Tyrell Jenkins and Michael Dunn. The Danny Valencia is Blue Refractor #102/199.
Autograph
You are guaranteed one autograph per box. Our hit was a Bowman Chrome Refractor Autograph of Christian Yelich #303/500. This is an on card autograph with a blue sharpie.
Final Thoughts
Bowman returns with another strong product featuring a great selection of rookies and prospects. Bowman has always been a favorite of collectors each year. The two brands in one product with refractors and chrome designs being included in the box is a major selling point. The card designs are very smooth with solid borders and great photography. This is ideal for collectors who want a chance to get rookie cards of Mike Stanton, Buster Posey, Carlos Santana, Austin Jackson, Domonic Brown, Starlin Castro, Drew Stubbs, and Ian Desmond all in one box. The Blue Refractor is my favorite design from all the cards pulled.
