Need help: 1948 Bowman Stan Musial

Can anyone tell me if this Musial Rookie appears to be good??? I know next to nothing about the set or the card but would like to find a low graded (type card) to add to my autograph collection.

thanks!

    That is on my watch list and I am considering bidding as well. If the price is low enough it might be worth a shot.

  • Looks good. Should go for over a $100 don't you think?

    Musial had 214 Doubles before this card was even made... Rookie??? OK image

    To answer your Q... The seller alone proves it is authentic. He is a good guy and obviously knows his cards (ie close to 40,000 feedback).
    By "outing" this auction Im sure you will pay top $$ now that other know about it.


    Musial started his career 7 years before this so called "rookie" was ever printed.
    There are a few Musial cards 2-3 years older, ie Sears, Propagandas Montiel, Bond Bread, TipTop Bread, etc.
    Those are rookies IMO, not some card made well into his career

    But I know there are some colloectors that still call a 1933 R319 Ruth rookie too. Oh well

    I have no issues paying more for something if it's real... all the other 48 Bowmans have crazy BIN's.

    Personally I only collect Topps or Bowman cards so I really have no interest in earlier cards. thanks everyone for their opinions.
