1948 Bowman Curiosity.. Help Appreciated

Guest · Dec 13, 2009

AS you may know, i am collecting the 1948 Bowman set autographed. While lookig for cards, i came accross an auction with 2 Blank Back cards.

These cards look hand cut to me.. i am wondering if these are "Proofs" or just printing scrap that someone got a hold of.

Your thoughts:

Probably some sort of blank-backed Salesman sample.

If that is the case, i wonder what the rarity and value would be?

Was probably a strip of 3 or 4 cards that were cut up hurting the value. I dunno.

According to the Beckett Almanac:

"Many cards are found with over-printed, transposed or blank backs."

yeah, i found that in my research also.. the only thing i am not sure about is it being hand cut. i would think that if these were just misprints, they would have the factory cut.

the card on the left is the one that looks hand cut to me.

When in doubt, keep your money in your pocket.

nahhh... what fun would that be?

i have the card in hand... any other thoughts on what they might be? i do not think they were pack issued because the appear to be hand cut. i was thinking of a production sheet that got out of the factory..

what are your thoughts?

how could you tell if these are proof cards or not?
