Default Major cards that are a poor likeness of the player

We haven't done this for a while. Some of my favorites:

N28 Anson. No resemblance to the player in the N300 or the N162.
T206 Johnson pitching.
T206 Mathewson portrait. I don't see it. I've seen the photo it probably is based on and it just doesn't capture it.
CJ Jackson. Weak resemblance at best; compare to the photo cards.
33 Goudey Ott especially green background. The red one isn't that great a likeness either, to my eye.
34 Gehrig 61. Compared to the 37, a weak likeness.
38 Goudey Greenberg. I could be wrong, but i don't see it.
52T Mantle. Seriously. Put aside the preconceptions and LOOK at it.

In agreement about that N28 Anson and the 34 goudey gehrig #61. N28 is a great set with great looking lithographs, but that Anson card is horrid compared to the rest in that set.

The only one I have is the Arlie Latham. It sort of captures him.

While many of the Buchners have generic poses, there are some that have a true likeness of the player.
