I still remember when I won this card. Me and my now wife were in a Trader Joe's and I borrowed her iPhone to bid on it. She would not have leant me her phone if she knew what I needed it for:

The back of this Zeenut card makes me smile because of all the effort Buck Barker did to wrap the biographical info of the player on the front (not shown) around the James Cagney transfer on the back.

Only example of a card I've seen with Brother Matthias in it, and the only copy I've seen, and Fred Merkle in Yankees gear with a cigar is pretty cool. Maybe more are out there somewhere? Babe Ruth and wife in the center gifting the car to his mentor in front of St. Mary's school is pretty sweet too.

A ginormous head of a President on a woman’s body is always good for a chuckle.

Very few in the history of baseball have perfected this technique.

I get a kick out of several of the T206 players. I think Otto Knabe's picture is one of the funniest. First, the perspective makes him look short, like he has to reach way up! And then also, why does he have his hands like that? He is looking ahead like the ball is coming at him, but who holds their arms apart like that to catch a ball?

The "Uzit" on back would make many of us smile as well.

This '51 Bowman Berra card does the trick every time I gaze at it.
