1990 Kingpins

Junk wax years was a crazy time. Over-production? Check. Got a license to print? Boom you got cards. Bowling joined the era with Kingpins set featuring legends and top PBA bowlers. Ten cards per pack with random autographs of top 10 all time money winners. Will I get *points thumbs to himself* P-D-W or Bob Learn Jr or Walter Ray Williams?
