I’m putting together a run of Longhorn 1st Bowman refractor autos. Baseball and Bowman Chrome U.

Just picked up Max Belyeu this week:

I’ve nearly pulled the trigger on that a few times. 
 

Kinda went crazy buying this past week or two so gonna have to sale some of what I’ve had come in before I get more.

That was a sweet subset. I remember collecting the frank thomas one 

I liked the basketball Rookie Sensations, too.

Also, Fleer Pro Visions were the original Downtown hits!

I legit think I have over 10,000 Bowman’s coming. Found an auction site that sales boxes of like 400 each and I’ve bought somewhere around 25-30 at around $10 apiece. Some boxes will have football and Topps chrome and sometimes even better stuff but if I can land a solid # of McGonigle and Griffin’s I’ll come out way ahead. And that’s just those two guys from 24 and 25. Some might have 23 or other years. Won’t know until I get them Friday. They look like this:

I don't know if you get into breaks, but some breakers will sell a spot for all of the paper cards when they break Bowman products.

Oh trust me. I get into breaks. That’s how I got a couple of good Schaefer hockey cards today. 
 

I watched some of the Bowman 26 breaks today but my luck on those is usually terrible. I’ve seen some freaking monsters pulled before. Typically I spend most of my day watching auctions and breaks on WhatNot if I’m not super busy at the office.

My dad ran a shop in Georgetown when I was a kid. The junk wax boom was nice because you were never too far from a store.

Collected pretty much up until I graduated high school, but did buy a LeBron rookie because I figured it would be worthwhile to have down the road. It's not a huge card, but I like that it has gone everywhere with me since 2003.

I would’ve spent my entire summers in the shop if my Dad had ran one. We did a couple summer vacations around card shows. Good times.

I would have bankrupted my dad if he had a shop when I was younger. Without a doubt.
