Most of you guys have seen my T206 Rube Portrait. Thanks to a generous board member (Hi Sean!), I now have Rube Squared. Filling out the trio is a Mr. Jennings E-90-1.

To paraphrase Monty Python....

BRING OUT YOUR UGLIES!

Isn’t that Waddell throwing an upgrade for you, Mike?

This is one butt-ugly thread. I'm almost sorry that I don't have something to post in it. Almost. :)

Guess I'll have to take PSA's word for it that it's Broad Leaf :D

I don't know about an "upgrade" but a previous owner thought enough of it to get it "Graded" :eek:

I've always loved the Mayos, regardless of condition, but these are some beaters!

To be clear, I wasn't the one who submitted it. I bought the holder with the card. :rolleyes:

With actual price paid five dollars. Long thread about it 3-4 years ago, which I sent it out to Kevin Sacier to verify authenticity.and there were still naysayers..

The set is still intact. The price just went up for they really feel out of place on this thread.

Hank is almost in two pieces.

Yogi cannot challenge Waddell

333860

Roberto may be trimmed, but remains centered.

333861

Sandy emulating Titus with the 'stache

333862

Someone wanted Willie out of New York, but let him keep the cap.

333863

Restoration is the key for the uglies. Ted's trim was carefully restored with a "Preston Ward" boarder.

Interested parties should simply refer to "The Mutants" in their inquiries.

I sincerely apologize for polluting this thread with gem mint uglies.

Just a few flesh wounds, Brian.

Here is one where I don't care if it has creases and tape or not..

Not enough card for SGC, but just enough card for me. Great to have in any shape at all.

I have never seen that message about not enough card. That is awesome.

Those were some lucky recipients of such fine cardboard. There is no argument there....(though there is here.)

..to the set-completionist crowd , any port in a storm is anthem -- if anyone out there is willing to help me out with an upgrade proposal of any of these , well that would be a noble thing to do seein' as how we're so close to Christmas and all...
