1989 Bowman Tiffany

The 1989 Bowman Tiffany baseball set consists of 484 cards, each measuring 2-1/2" by 3-3/4”. Card fronts are identical to the regular Bowman issue of the same year, with a color player photograph with a facsimile signature and the Bowman logo. The motif is framed in white. Card backs contain information that includes the player’s performance against each team the prior season. The exception, however, is that this Tiffany set features gloss-covered fronts with a white cardstock reverse. Cal Ripken, Jr. (#9), Roger Clemens (#26), Mark McGwire (#197), Nolan Ryan (#225), and Barry Bonds (#426) anchor the set. Rookie cards in the series include Robin Ventura (#65), Gary Sheffield (#142), Ken Griffey, Jr. (#220), John Smoltz (#266), and Sandy Alomar, Jr. (#454). This Bowman issue was available solely as a factory set with an estimated 6,000 sets created.
