Condition of the 115-card unencapsulated balance is 24% Ex to Ex-Mt (mostly Ex and including a couple bordering on Nr/Mt), 63% Vg to Vg-Ex, and 13% lesser (including a few that measure small). Unencapsulated Keys: #15 Ashburn (Vg-Ex+), 33b Raschi/trade line (Vg+), 57 Wilhelm (Vg-Ex), 62 Slaughter (Ex+), 84 Doby (Ex+), and 132 Feller (Vg). This is a crisp, clean, and extremely attractive near-complete set of this classic and often overlooked Bowman issue. The SMR value for just 102 of the graded cards (not including the PSA-qualified card) is $7,604. Total: 218 cards. The size/weight of this item requires that there will be an additional shipping charge for this lot.
