A very attractive and underrated set the 1954 Bowman issue continues on with the large-format full-color design featured in its 1953 issue featuring a large color image of each subject and a facsimile autograph superimposed over the card front along with extensive biographical information on the reverse. It's difficult to say why the issue is so underrated given its beauty but later-year Bowman sets tend to be overshadowed by their Topps counterparts. Presented here is a large partial collection representing 92% of the set however with several of the issue's keys missing including the rare #66 Ted Williams. Missing from the set include #65 Mickey Mantle #66 Williams #84 Doby #89 Willie Mays #122 Furrillo #142 Brazle #166 Consuegra #170 Snider #177 Ford #179 Martin #189 Jackson #193 Robinson #194 Hudson #202 Shuba #210 Piersall #212 Friend #217 Thompson and #224 Bruton.
