Default Rogers Hornsby: What's his best looking card?

Unfortunately, his otherwise great-looking '33 Goudey "dugout" card and '33 Diamond Stars IMO have some of the worst placed text on any baseball card ever, and I just can't get over it.

The other '33 Goudey card isn't bad looking. Any others you guys like?

I mean look at these. The Goudey is just a poor decision but the DS is laughable:

His1922 American Caramel Card is pretty nice In my opinion. His Cards in the Exhibit Post Card set present nicely as well.

Default Mug Shot Okay ?



..The genius and artistry of George Burke on this 4 x 6 comes through in a well-cropped and beautifully-posed mid-thirties 'mug-shot' picture.....it was used for the free gum premium of 1936 National Chicle R-313 "Fine Pens"........Burke 4 x 6's are many of my 'favorite cards'....

Default Underrated set

Unlike alot of collectors, I've always loved the look of the 1931 W517 set, and the Hornsby card from that set looks great...
