Description: 1952 Bowman Small Proof #17 Y. A. Tittle -- BVG 9 A Rare, one-of-a-kind, blank-backed Proof. Graded MINT 9 by BVG. Similar to the regular 1952 Bowman small issue, except the back is blank and the front of the card is missing the black line around the inner picture. Originates from the Bowman Archive Auction held in Long Beach, California, in 1991. Qualities include four perfect corners, bright vibrant color, white borders, and perfect registration. Superior in visual appearance to the regular issue.Bowman made a series of Proof cards for each of its early 1950s issues in order to check the quality of each subject, just prior to the full production process. There was one proof for each card in the set, making this a unique example. Rarely are proofs found in this condition, making this a very rare specimen.
