1993 Bowman Football (Affordable Breaks)

1993 Bowman:   This Jim Kelly is a foil card from this set.  It's not a parallel.  It's the only Jim Kelly card but has a different design from the majority of the cards.
These are from an Affordable Breaks break in 2021 and I'm just getting around to sharing.  The design isn't bad but does feel a bit lacking.  What you see here is the majority of the cards as opposed to the foil cards.  Lots of room for the photos, and the photos are solid, so no complaints there.
1993 would be the year Buffalo went to their 4th straight Super Bowl and the 4th straight year us Bills fans went home crying.  This time they lost to Dallas 30-13 in Super Bowl XXVIII.
Nice Melvin Jenkins photo.  I'm not posting every card I pulled from the break.  Lots of fun memories from this set including The Cajun Cannon Bobby Hebert.
The foil cards seem to have gone to the star players on each team.  Kelly and Thurman Thomas for the Bills while Andre Rison is the only Falcon Foil.  Rison would go on to lead the league in touchdowns in 1993 with 15 and set a career high in receiving yards with 1,242.

BREAKDOWN:
I didn't get a full set of either team but was only one card away from the entire Falcons team set.
