2011 Bowman Jumbo

In the past these Jumbo packs have thrown in a few surprises and the following 2011 Bowman Jumbo is no exception. There is also the slim (very slim) possibility of a Bryce Harper card. This jumbo came through the Alley family, who recently bequeathed some more 2011 packs. A very generous bunch the Alleys from North Carolina.

I have yet to obtain a base card from the Red Sox , I have one a blue bordered Dustin Pedroia, so I still need:

#26 Dustin Pedroia
#46 Jon Lester
#87 Adrian Gonzalez
#92 Josh Beckett
#119 David Ortiz
#126 Jacoby Ellsbury
#129 Carl Crawford
#130 Clay Buchholz
#186 Kevin Youkilis
#192 Lars Anderson RC

Enclosed within:
#13 Matt Kemp Dodgers
#24 Mike Pelfrey Mets
#41 Shin-Soo Choo Indians
#97 Mitch Moreland Rangers
#99 Roy Halladay Phillies green border 045/450
#113 Billy Butler Royals
#144 Yovani Gallardo Brewers
#150 Michael Cuddyer Twins
#159 Michael Young Rangers
#170 Alex Rodriguez Yankees
#194 Konrad Schmidt D-backs gold border
#BP49 Phillip Cerreto Cardinals
#BP57 Angel Castillo Angels
#BP58 Adrian Salcedo Twins
#BP109 Darin Mastroianni Blue Jays
#BP110 Jonathan Villar Astros blue border 434/500
#BCP29 Johermyn Chavez Mariners
#BCP50 Mychal Givens Orioles
#BCP71 Evan Crawford Cubs
#BCP78 Cole Figueroa Bay Rays
checklist 4/4

So the surprise...no Red Sox but two numbered cards.
