I recently purchased a box of 2019 Topps Gallery. Fantastic cards, by the way. I pulled the Hall of Fame card of Mel Ott, but the photo looks a lot more like Christy Mathewson & not like Mel Ott at all in my opinion.
Thoughts?

Looks like Christy to me. How could they mess that up?
Hey, anything to drive up sales. The Ott/Mathewson error card.

They used Mike Boddicker for Jim Palmer on this one.

In Topps' defense, both Christy Mathewson and Mel Ott played for the New York Giants, and Jim Palmer and Mike Boddicker both played for the Baltimore Orioles.

I am a half glass full guy only when the glass is half empty.

Yeah, and they both had 10 fingers and two ears.
