Hi

I am presently trying to source 3 Greg Leeb cards and they are as follows
1998 Bowman CHL - Golden Anniversary card #55
1998 Bowman CHL - Chrome - Golden Anniversary card #55
1998 Bowman CHL - Chrome - Golden Anniversary Refractor card #55

The question is do they exist?
If, they do exist what were the differences in the cards between them and the other cards in that range - Greg Leeb Chrome Refractor card, which I already have ?
Does anyone have any of these cards that they want to sell or can send me images of them, so I know what I am looking for ?

Any help is much approecated

Regards Mick

The cards exist but they are very rare. They look the same as the other cards except the words "golden anniversary" are printed down the left side. There is one card (not Leeb's) currently listed on www.ebay.com if you want to have a look.

Here is information from the Beckett online catalogue:

1998 Bowman CHL Golden Anniversary Set Information
Randomly inserted in packs at the rate of 1:57, this 165-card set is a gold-foil parallel version of the base set and is sequentially numbered to 50 in honor of the 50 years of Bowman cards.

1998 Bowman Chrome CHL Golden Anniversary Set Information
Randomly inserted in packs at a rate of 1:39, this 165-card parallel offers the same players as in the Bowman Chrome CHL base set. The set is sequentially numbered to 50. Cards are randomly inserted into packs. A refractor variation was also created and inserted randomly. Refractors were serial numbered to just 5 and are not priced due to scarcity.
