This lot features a 1955 Bowman Baseball partial set, containing 212 cards out of the 320. The instantly recognizable television-based design makes one of the more distinct looking sets from the period. Each card features a wood panel frame showcasing stars in a horizontal layout, with the only other attributes being the player's last name next to his image and a "Color TV" notation along bottom.

This hobby-fresh set comes mostly in low to mid-grade condition. We submitted just three cards for grading and they came back rather disappointing: #179 Hank Aaron – SGC VG 3; #184 Willie Mays – SGC GD+ 2.5; and #303 J.B “Jocko” Conlan (Umpire) – SGC AUTHENTIC (Trimmed). Mays has a very nice front, but has a toned spot and nearly MC on the back. The Conlan measures out to the correct dimensions to us, but we're not the experts. Still, its NM quality certainly warrants crack-out consideration. The rest of the cards in raw form average mostly VG to EX.
