1998 Bowman Baseball Forum

A couple questions before I open IRs, all relating to the Inserts and Related Sets:

• Series 1 checklists are listed twice, both under single card Inserts and a Checklist Insert Set.  Series 2 checklists are only listed as single card Inserts.  Should these be listed as a Insert Set or is single card Insert correct?
• I'm not sure why the ' 1998 Bowman Certificate Request Card' is listed as a Promo since it was a pack Insert similar to the checklists.  Any issues with requesting the move to single card Insert?
• I have no idea what the CL4 Checklist Series 3 or the three BBM cards listed as Inserts are doing here.  I've opened cases of each series and am unaware of these 4 cards having anything to do with 1998 Bowman or where they might need to be moved to.  Does anyone have any info that these belong here, where they might need to move to, or should they just be deleted?

All checklists should be listed as one Insert Set.  And the checklist cards are numbered, not NNO.

Aligned checklist numbering/naming and submitted IRs to have cards for S2 moved and images/collection info for S1 merged.

OK, the first two items have been addressed or are in progress.  I did some more research on the third item and it appears the three '91 BBM cards were inserted in this product as buybacks, but there is no way to tell these apart from the original issue as "Topps did not specially mark, stamp, or emboss these cards" per https://baseballcardpedia.nfshost.com/index.php/1998_Bowman#1991_Japanese_BBM

If there's nothing to distinguish these, should they be listed with this set or have collection info moved and entries deleted?  I think the latter and I can write up something for Trivia.

I haven't been able to find anything on the #CL4 Checklist card.

Buybacks that aren't marked as such are simply the old cards. There should be no separate listing, and something in the release notes would be proper and sufficient.
