Set Completion Success! 2013 Bowman Prospects Flag Set

I'm not sure why, but it was really easy to build a state/hometowm flag parallel of the 2013 Bowman prospects set.  I suppose it's because there aren't that many super "hot" prospects to hunt down.  The most expensive one was this Byron Buxton card that I received last week that wrapped up my efforts:


I don't know about anyone else, but I love the way these look in pages. 





I mostly built this set with lots I was able to win on eBay.  This created several doubles and triples of some cards- so if anyone has player/team requests let me know and there's a good chance I have them.  I'll probably put some of my repeats on Listia too.

I'm working on the 220 ct. base set too, and am about halfway done with it.

2013 Bowman Flag Cards

I'm pretty fond of Bowman sets, but I doubt I collect it this year.  At least, I won't be busting wax like I usually do.  There are some nice Ranger prospects in this year's set that I want, but not many Royals (who I can watch play in person here locally at the AA affiliate). 

Speaking of the Rangers prospects, if anyone has a Jairo Beras for trade, please let me know.

I might think about building a set of the nice State and Hometown Flag parallels.  Bowman does something like this every year, but I really like the looks of this year's version.  I bought a handful of these last week, and I think they look great:




A full set of these in an album would look very cool.  If I can score a good starter lot on eBay, I think I'll take this up as a project.
