Corey Seager: 2013 Bowman Inception Prospect Orange Auto /50, BGS 8.5

Here's another BGS return from way back when. Thanks, as always, to the fantastic Dodger Penguin for letting me submit through him. Today's card was acquired in a trade with The Daily Dimwit back in 2014. I redeemed it and Topps sent it to me later that year.


Damn Inception and its oh so tricky corner issues. I had hopes this 2013 Bowman Inception Orange Auto, #'d 03/50, of Corey Seager would at least 9 but some corner damage sunk it to an 8.5 with a 10 signature. While 8.5's are not ideal the card does hold sentimental value to me as I always appreciate people trading me cool stuff. Also, Seager autos are always tremendous. I may try and snag another down the road but whether that happens or not I'm happy to have this John Hancock in my #ManBearSeag PC.

    Still a great card even with the irritating 8.5. Hopefully the next batch will have better returns.

    inception cards are so tough. beautiful on auto cards, but the edges and corners are always a little rough. nice grade though for the Seager auto card

      Thanks! And yeah, perhaps one day Topps will find a remedy for the thicker corners.
