Shiny Cardboard - Bowman's Best Nomah!

Today was a crazy day with both work and personal stuff, so all I have time for posting this evening is a single shiny card.  It's the latest addition to my organized collection from a set that I became really attracted to in 2020, the 1999 Bowman's Best Refractors...

From the Best Performers subset, it's the great Nomar Garciaparra!  This guy was my favorite baseball player for quite a few years, and certainly was when this card was released (though I wasn't actively collecting at that time).  This will pair quite nicely with Garciaparra's base refractor that I showed off just last month.

Actually, I now have the base and Best Performers pair for Nomar, Vlad and Sammy Sosa, plus a base Todd Helton.  Given that these are relatively rare at 400 copies each, I'm pleased to have accumulated seven of them already.  I know I have at least a couple more in my to-be-posted box too, picked up before I went on a spending hiatus for the month of July.

Here's a look at the back, which I always show for these refractors, as it's a bit different than most card back designs.  I actually like the layout quite a bit, even if the serial-numbering is a bit tough to make out here.

Well, that's really all I have time for this evening.  I've got plenty of great cards, and plenty of great post ideas kicking around in my brain, but just suffering from a total lack of time tonight.

Hopefully tomorrow I find myself with more free/hobby time, and can cobble something a bit more elaborate together.  For tonight though, thanks for stopping by and checking out my shiny Nomar!
