1954 Bowman Custom Baseball cards

All my What-If blogs so far have focused on Topps, so I thought it was time I showed some custom Bowman baseball cards.

In 1954, Bowman cards were hand colored black and white photographs - a departure from the popular 1953 set which utilized Kodachrome photographs. The set was numbered at 224 cards with card #66 being available as either Jimmy Piersall or Ted Williams due to Topps forcing Bowman to remove Williams after signing him to an exclusive contract.

Here are some more custom baseball cards of the other players that appeared in the 1954 Topps set but not Bowman:
