Default Uggliest Pre War Issue or Card
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder but what's the uggliest pre-war issue or card in your opinion? I'm not talking condition, I'm talking appearance or design. IMO the W515 Maranville in particular is tough to look at. It looks like an alien in a baseball uniform (if someone has it, please post).

I also don't like the E91 set. I had a Wagner from this set but ended up selling it because it didn't have the greatest eye appeal

I know I'm in the minority here, but the T204 Ramly's are really really ugly in my opinion.

I was gonna say the same thing. But somehow, it's also one of my favorite sets. Probably because of the affordability and player selection.. The fact that they're plain ol' ugly for some reason is a positive to me...

Default US Caramel
For whatever reason, I find the US Caramel set visually unappealing.

My vote would have to go here...although some of the strips run a close second.

Default T204s
I'll agree with the T204s! Everytime somebody says they are some of the most beautiful cards ever made, I look again...just to be sure I'm not missing anything. I don't see too many redeeming factors in that set. I'll stick with T205/206/202 anyday!

Take Care,
Geno

Ooh, snap! I think there are some really nice looking and really ugly ones in both.
