Yes, and Bobby himself looks like some kind of bald mutant child thing.

100%. Frankly, buying that card would be purely an exercise in owning that card for me. I would never want to look at it, and it would just be to say I had one, which isn’t the point of my collection at all.

Bobby collecting more hits today and the team closing in on a wildcard spot.

A hot finish to the season that gets KC into the playoffs could really put a solid cap on this season, even if we don't get the 10 WAR we all hoped for.

I resemble that. May be why I like the 1st Bowmans…a bald mutant.

I've said before it's one of the worst looking cards of all time. I'll die on that hill.

I want to like the card. Feel like I should own it. I just can’t. It’s such a bad image.

The Bowman card looks like the pixelated face of a 007 Goldeneye-era player that you accidentally ran right up to with your PP7 drawn.

I refuse to own one.

It was like “Take your kids to work and let them smudge photoshop pixels on top prospects” day at Topps.

I love this reference! Spot on! I’d be the loser trying to shoot his face off with the Klobb.

This is oddly specific, but as an elder millennial, I can also say it’s completely accurate.

What is up with this card and why is the pop count lower than the gold refractor version? Are people just less interested in grading the base auto or is it somehow short printed? Thanks for any insight.

Not sure. Could be an SSP. It could also be a similar issue with his non-auto #/499 refractor where then north/south centering is really bad on them, so they don’t get sent in for grading as much as others.

The card is ultra SSPed, I can't find a sale since last Sept. There may not actually be any more of them than there are gold /50s.
