Each card has been graded by SGC. Offered is a 322-card near set (missing Mantle and Mays which are found elsewhere in the auction) of baseball cards. Bowman's last year of generally unchallenged dominance in the baseball card market was notable for this brightly nostalgic issue. The '51 Bowmans boast a clean, uncluttered design with hand-painted images presented in the once-customary small card size.
