Joe Kelley & Matty McIntyre are the only players in the set with definitive male pattern baldness. Come on guys, just shave the damn thing!

Burns noted above:

This one, I feel is the strangest. Either an artist error, a joke, or dude was so poor...? Someone
before added that maybe he lost his original glove in a bet.

There are a few more very "unique" subjects that I know of. But I haven't yet acquired all of them
so...

Spike Shannon is the only player in the set who apparently had the exact same bodily proportions as Mr. Potato Head.

Anthony,

Spike doesn't look like the kind of guy that would have taken that "Mr. Potato Head" reference lightly. When time travel is invented, I don't think one of those bump proof locks will save you.

Lovely Day...

OMG! He ACTUALLY looked like that? I thought it was just a poor artist's representation. Makes me feel bad for always hating that card because it was so ugly. Sorry Spike!

Well, he was "Sleepy" Bill Burns.

Maybe he was still half-asleep when he pulled out the glove and didn't quite know what he was doing

Wilhelm could be giving his pregame prayers or late inning rally wishes...

I think they should have made a batting pose of Spike Shannon. That photo would have made an incredible T206 pose!

Is Ball in a "ready to play pose" like Wilhelm? Anyone got a scan of Ball to show??

Neal Ball looks like he might be holding a baseball... Kaiser Wilhelm is cracking his knuckles before a brawl...
