I love the 55 Bowman set! I was able to pick up this bright, well-centered Hank for a good price because it was stapled! Oh well…it’s a killer card!

1955 Bowman Pittsburgh Pirates. 💛🖤
I can't remember when I got these great 1955 cards of players on my favorite team. The cards are much older than I.
What I do remember was that I thought they were amazing at first sight.
