1995 Bowman Baseball Cards
Product Details
Not long after its release, 1995 Bowman Baseball (and 1995 Bowman's Best) was one scorching hot set. The checklist had tons of rookies including a pair of young baseball messiahs by the names of Andruw Jones and Vladimir Guerrero. It's amazing what can happen when hype evolves into reality. Although the appeal isn't close to what it once was, this is still a fairly decent release.
The 1995 Bowman Baseball set has 439 cards. The design is on the busy side. A white border goes around all edges of the outside. The player image takes up about three-quarters of the area with things getting a little strange as the image is flipped, squished and given a green tint to make a sidebar. The player's name and team logo are in a separate bar along the bottom. The Bowman logo is in red foil while the last name has silver foil. Needless to say, there are lots of colors and elements that don't necessarily connect.
Backs are equally busy with several different types of text running both vertically and horizontally. There's also a second smaller player photo to go with all of the written information.
Vladimir Guerrero is the set's top rookie card now. While his career didn't reach its full potential, he was still one of the better players of his generation. The result likely won't result in a spot in Cooperstown, but he'll be there if and when someone opens the Hall of Very Good.
For Andruw Jones, time wasn't so good. His drop in the hobby could be comparable to that of Jose Canseco a decade earlier. Today, the interest in the 1995 Bowman Andruw Jones comes primarily from nostalgia and collectors realizing they can now afford a card that was once out of reach.
Scott Rolen is another key rookie card in 1995 Bowman Baseball. He is one of 54 foil cards in the middle of the checklist. These cards have a sparkly border to go with a foil background.
All of the foil cards have a Gold parallel, which are the product's only inserts. Gold Foil cards are inserted 1:6 hobby packs so they're not overly tough to find today.
Other rookies in 1995 Bowman Baseball include Bartolo Colon, Chris Carpenter and Bobby Abreu.
