Since I started the process of building a 1952 Bowman set with such a barrage of stars (Feller, Snider, Stengel, Ashburn, etc.), I decided to breathe a little and start picking up some of the commons. And to me, they're only common in a relative sense. The cards are still beautiful little works of art, big names or not, which is why I love this set so much. The pics:
I've written about
Sibby Sisti before.
Coincidentally, some of these cards are close together in the set numbers-wise, so it gives me a chance to show the types of pages I'm using for them:
The great thing about 52 Bowman is that they fit perfectly into business card pages, which hold 10 cards per sheet. I found some heavy duty pages at Staples that seem very high quality (and weren't cheap).
So I'm about 10% done with 52 Bowman, which is the goal I set for the whole year (about 25 cards per year over a 10 year period is my time frame).

You're on your way!
Beautiful cards. Real works of art.
You beat me to it... I was going to say that no 52 Bowman is really a 'common'. It's just a fabulous set. Good luck with it.
