Once, Twice, Three Times an Ugly
 

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!

Here's a recent pick up...

Tough card - beggars can't be choosers.

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:

Mayos
 

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

Frank - what ever happened to your ‘55 Topps beater set?

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

Sean...Never thought anything different:):D

Authentic card
 

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 Mutants are Gem Mint on this Thread
 

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

Roberto may be trimmed, but remains centered.

Sandy emulating Titus with the 'stache

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

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.

FINALLY a thread I can post in
 

Put these together and I might have 2.5 full cards

Your Cobb and my Crawford look like they belong together.

Took the words right out of my keyboard.

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.

Never going to throw that SGC slip away! Won’t see another like it. :-)

Ah, the days before top loaders...Scotch tape does the job lol

Sadly, I can contribute to this thread. :(\

Here are some great T213 Coupons that I used to have but have given away over the years.

Congrats, man, those are horrid!

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

Well-loved , much-handled , poorly-stored....

..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...
