Did you know that they make Bowling sports cards?
« on: January 09, 2009, 03:00:16 PM »
I was looking on eBay just for fun and came across some PBA Bowling sports cards.  The boxes were pretty darn expensive too.

Anyone have any of these?

I remember seeing them quite a few years ago, maybe in the late '80s?

Ok, I just looked and the ones you are probably talking about are the recent ones, 2007 or 2008.  The ones I was talking about was from the late 80s or early 90s and here is a link to a 1990 set like I remember with Earl Anthony.

I was not aware that they were making any new ones since I remember the ones I saw sitting on dealers tables/shelves for years without any buyers.

Some of the older ones are in a display case I at Woodland Lanes Spider. Harry Sullins had his own card and it's hilarious looking.
