Set to be relased on December, 18th, 2013 Bowman Sterling hopes to recover from last year’s debacle in term of overall value. For the buyer, 2012 Sterling was amazing. Plenty of middle of the road autographs could be had for .99 cents in most cases, but obviously from the sellers point of view this year is hoping to be much stronger.
The overall design of ’13 Sterling has some drastic changes. The cards look a lot like past Leaf products with player in front of neon lighting, so for me I’m not entirely sold on the design aspects, but once the autograph checklist is complete it may save this product. Thanks to BlowoutCards and Topps for the product breakdown-
