This article is about a set that was just released.
Some information may change as more facts become known.
Description
2017 Bowman High Tek is a 56-card set scheduled for release October 25th. Like the Topps High Tek revival product of recent years, all cards are printed on acetate with multiple background variations. As the name suggests, the base set consists exclusively of prospects. Each ten-card box will yield four autographs and a parallel.
Distribution
Ten cards per box (MSRP: $110). 12 boxes per case. Hobby only.
