    Yankee logo looks weird. Bad touch-up job?

    Card is tilted, oh yeah, the Yankees logo is backwards also.

    Well creeperkat you kind of got it, but gameusedhoop actually gave the correct answer. Backwards logo is what I was going for.

    Actually although the logo is indeed backwards......The real fact is that the picture is a reverse negative making the entire picture backwards.

    Yeah, I guess you can tell that by the way the uniform buttons up. Should be facing the other way. All right you got me on a technicality.

    So they airbrushed a logo on a hat and then reversed the negative?

    I remember there being some pretty terrible airbrush jobs around that period. Before they usually just had a picture of the player without a hat.

    I do not know, that is a good question though. I wonder what some of the worst airbrushing job Topps has done on a card?

    God, I wonder who Topps hired to cut those mini's back in '75. To date, they're the worse cut cards I've ever seen on a general release. Even worse than the '81 Donruss I think.
