Here's what I pulled in our mini box of 2007 Bowman's Best Baseball.
Base Card, Rookie Card and Parallels
The base cards are beautiful "Tribute Technology" with the parallels being very similar only with a Red, Gold, Blue or Green background. We received 19 veteran regular issue cards, one regular rookie /799 and one Prospect parallel /249. We also received a green parallel of Robinson Cano /249.
Each mini box contained three autographs, our pulls were Greg Reynolds Prospect (Rockies), Mark Reynolds Rookie autograph blue parallel /99. Our Veteran autograph was of Melky Cabrera.
2007 Bowman's Best Baseball continues the Alex Rodriguez road to 500 homerun cards parallel set, numbers 401-425. A very nice tribute to one of the games great young players.
Final Thoughts on 2007 Bowman's Best Baseball;
This is a real nice product with great potential for both the baseball collector and the rookie investor. These boxes can usually be had for approximately $85 to $100 on most sites/shops that I have checked. The "Tribute Technology" is nice to see again, but the card stock was extremely thick for all the cards in the set. It was very nice to pull three autographs, of which there are many top prospects, rookies and great veterans in the set. While the autographs were on stickers, Topps did have the stickers recessed in the card which I think is a nice touch to help protect the autograph. I really like the sharp look of the set, but be careful to protect each card in a penny sleeve since they are easy to scratch on the surface. The set looks sharp and the three hits per box add to the value of Bowman's Best.
I rate this product an "A-" for Topps! I would have liked more rookies and even regular issue cards in the box, but the Tribute Technology makes for one of the nicest looking cards on the market.
