Step back into the hobby’s late-80s resurgence with this 1989 Bowman Baseball Wax Box. This vintage release marked Bowman’s return to the baseball card market, featuring a taller card size and a checklist packed with stars.

This box is not factory sealed (Topps/Bowman did not shrink-wrap boxes from this era), but the packs remain in their original configuration.

Key Highlights

• Key cards include:

  • Ken Griffey Jr. Rookie Card (Bowman #220)

  • Tons of Hall of Famers: Rickey Henderson, Nolan Ryan, Cal Ripken Jr., Tony Gwynn, Wade Boggs, and more

• Oversized vintage card format unique to 1989 Bowman
