A stunner! Flipping through this set is like getting drenched in the fountain of youth! Without a doubt one of the crispest, cleanest sets of '55 Bowman that the hobby has seen in some time. We grade the set overall at Ex/Mt to Nm, because many of the cards have centering issues, but a full 50% of the set would grade NM or better, with many Nm/Mt and even Mint cards. These have a sharp, unhandled feel and look to them, with many cards still absolutely gleaming with their original gloss! 2 cards are GAI graded: Aaron (6) and Mays (7.5), with these ungraded beauties: #1 Wilhelm Ex, Rizzuto Ex, Campy Ex, Kaline Ex/Mt, Fox Nm, Reese Nm, Ford Nm, Slaughter Nm, Mathews Nm/Mt, Feller Nm/Mt, Hodges Nm, Berra Nm, Roberts Nm, Mantle Nm (oc) and Banks Ex/Mt. You'd be hard pressed to find a nicer, complete 320 card set of '55 Bowmans than this one.
