Default Ugliest Pre-War card ever ???
Alright I did something similar with the T206 set. Now let's see what you're least appealing/ugliest Pre-War card ever is!!!


I've got my pick right here: "The Big Train" T207 if there was ever a card I HATED it's this one. He looks like he's wearing lipstick.

Let's see you picks !!!

It's from his early Goth/Emo days. Notice the vampire-like white powder makeup on his whole face.

I really like this card because it's part of one of my favorite sets, and it's a unique pose. Having said that, I wish the pose was more flattering to Nap.

There are lots of ugly ones, but the most ugly one that is really expensive has to be the E90-1 Jax rookie...hideous card.

Cheers,
Blair

I don't think many sets compare to Eclipse.

E90-1 Jackson and any E91. If 30s cards count, the 38G DiMaggio is pretty bad.

Ugliest? The 1939 Play Ball Ted Williams, at least in comparison to his two other rookies, the 1939 R303A and 1939 V351. Ted deserved a better photo than Play Ball came up with!

Best to all of you and yours,

Larry

Quite a few great options but that w515 Cobb looks like the winner to me.

Oh my dear lord those are pretty ugly.

Nap looks like he's got too much blush on
Babe looks like he's in PJ'S on his bed
Schalk ......no comment
Babe#2 looks like a little piglet in clothes
Cobb looks like an evil villan

This one gets my vote - you know, the ruby lipped no-nose one!
I do like the purple background though!

I never like the e90-1 Jackson, but there are worse full sets out there. That just may be the worst single card from a well known set.

My vote for ugliest would be the BIG HEADS

I showed my wife the cards and the Cobb was her vote for worst, with the Ruth a close second place.

I don't know if I'd pay a nickle for those cards. Well I'm sure they're worth more but you get my point.
