Description

1990 Bowman (produced by Topps) is a 528 card set. Unlike the 1989 set, all cards are standard-sized. Player selection did include some more rookies and prospects; however, the rookie and prospect content was a long way from what the Bowman brand would become. Like the '89 Bowman set, the 1990 edition can be seen as a second Topps "flagship" set.

The card fronts have a non-glossy finish and feature a color player photograph with a white border. The card reverse is not finished and has a vertical orientation. The backs feature player personal stats, and playing stats against other teams in 1989.

Notable Rookie Cards include Moises Alou, Travis Fryman, Juan Gonzalez, Chuck Knoblauch, Ray Lankford, Sammy Sosa, Frank Thomas, Mo Vaughn, Larry Walker, and Bernie Williams.

1990 Bowman Tiffany is a factory set by Topps. Similar to the Topps Tiffany sets of The Junk Wax Era, these cards parallel the regular Bowman set except they're printed on white cardstock and have glossy fronts. (The Tiffany sets were produced by Topps' Ireland plant, which also produced the annual Topps Traded sets.) In addition to the 528 basic cards, all eleven Art Inserts (see below) were also included in the factory set -- although, curiously, the backs of the Tiffany cards have the same information on how to enter the contest.

According to published reports at the time, approximately 3000 Tiffany sets were produced. However, according to the website tiffanycards.com, sets serial-numbered up to 6000 have been found.

Seeded at the rate of one-per-pack, this eleven-card set depicts drawings by artist Craig Pursley with the backs describing the 1990 Bowman sweepstakes. Since these cards were not sequentially-numbered, we have checklisted the set alphabetically by player. All the cards in this set can be found with either one asterisk or two on the back bottom left corner.

11" X 14" lithographs of this set were issued through both Topps dealer network, through a wrapper redemption, and as prizes in a sweepstakes. These lithos were signed by the artist and are come either with or without serial numbering to 500 lithos.
