What’s Hot in 2013 Bowman Inception Baseball

It didn't take long for 2013 Bowman Inception Baseball to gain acceptance from the collecting community. With such a deep roster of prospect autographs, it shouldn't be that much of a surprise, but sometimes it can take a while for a brand to catch on. Take Bowman Platinum as an example. It had been around for a few years, performing well but not as a breakout set. That changed in 2012 where it went on to be one of the year's most popular releases. Granted, the Inception name has been around in football beforehand but not on the diamond and not under the Bowman banner.

The all-autograph composition of 2013 Bowman Inception is certainly a major selling point. For a touch more than the price of two boxes of 2013 Bowman Baseball, which usually yield one autograph a piece, collectors get five with Inception. And just like the Chrome Refractors, there are several parallels to keep people hunting.

2013 Bowman Inception Baseball does have a fairly straightforward composition. While this might not make for the biggest checklist ever, it's bolstered by a strong crop of prospects and rookies. Besides the low-numbered base parallels, other cards drawing attention include autographed patch cards and inscription autographs. The Bowman Black line continues as well.

Of course, it's tough to ignore the impact of Yasiel Puig. Most of his base autographs, a redemption, sold for at least $400 during the set's first week of release. Several Puig redemption cards for parallels and other inserts numbered to 25 and less passed the $1,000 threshold.
