I had gotten one response on another post, but get more confused each time i see the listings on EBAY. How many different versions of the Bowman INTERNATIONAL card exist? I believe I see more than 3 versions...some have dark lettering, some have white lettering, etc...is anyone an expert on these? I see cards with the following characteristics:
WHITE NAME W/ LIGHT BACKGROUND
WHITE NAME W/ DARK BACKGROUND
DARK NAME W/ LIGHT BACKGROUND
DARK NAME W/ DARK BACKGROUND

Please help... identify which is which if you can...

I have no idea what you are talking about?
There are only two "INTERNATIONAL", the chrome and the chrome refractor.
The chrome refractor is the expensive one. It must have the lighthouse in the background to be the international.

It might be because of the effect caused by scanning a chrome card. It normally comes out either a bit darker, or lighter, depending on the persons scan settings.

I heard if you grind up one of his International RCs and eat it you will be able to fly like superman and get as many girls as Ron Jeremy.

If you grind up the card and cook the shreds until they become hard, and chip it into little rocks and smoke them, it works alot faster.

i just looked at the pics.
one looks like a chrome that isnt listed as a chrome, but it probably just looks that way
because it is the only one that is a picture (taken from camera), where the others
are scans.
