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.
