Terrible Photographs Used On Cards

Feel free to add cards from any sport....I will start it out with this Ozzie Smith card. (I guess this is an Ozzie card).

Allen · August 27, 2008 9:30AM

What? I dig that Ozzie card.

I believe his nickname was "fat tub of goo"

Was this guy any good?

Whoppee! Another wonderful TBAG comment.

Mphilking · August 27, 2008 10:47AM

This isn't terrible, in fact it's one of the coolest. But I thought I'd send it anyway.

By the way I copied the picture from Ebay.

VitoCo1972 · August 27, 2008 10:50AM

Every Don Mossi card qualifies

How bout the couple different Claude Raymond cards with his fly down....I know there are at least two different years. (here are a couple borrowed scans from the bay)

Looks like Will Ferrell. LOL!

Pick any card from 1973.

Yup, I love that set though.

RedHeart54 · August 30, 2008 2:32AM

I guess the photographer hadn't heard of a zoom lens.

Never really liked this one.

This is probably the worst. Which one is Rudi? Beckett says none of them.

There's always been speculation as to what's been drawn on the end of Boog's bat. What do you think?

Booger face?

great thread --except for the TVAC comment...

is that guy a waste of Computer space or what....

Interesting that you would post a comment about TVAC. Isn't that right Gary?

I wondered where you were this weekend Nam. I haven't seen you post and was concerned that you might have quit the hobby.

<< I wondered where you were this weekend Nam. I haven't seen you post and was concerned that you might have quit the hobby. >>

I was going to, and then I remembered that you said although you had no idea who I was, that I was a valued member of this forum, so I stayed.

Is this even physically possible???

1967 Willie Mays is awful along with the Mantle.

Isn't that Reggie in the middle?

digicat · August 31, 2008 4:51AM

He looks a little too white for Reggie. Beckett says it's Gene Tenace.

It's not such a terrible picture, but it's kind of spooky that Topps used Ken Hubbs' picture on a card in 1966 when he was killed in February 1964 in a plane crash.

Haha that's classic.

hotmush · September 1, 2008 12:52AM

Looks like Brooks is searching for an oasis.

calaban7 · September 1, 2008 1:05AM

The 1961 Topps card # 184 of Steve Bilko is one of my favorites. He looks like he has a terrible hangover or has had a rough night or both.

I am a techno-tard and lack whatever is lacking to post the picture. You will not be dissappointed.

nam812 · September 1, 2008 2:01AM

Here's your picture Sonny, but im not seeing it.

BigDaddyBowman · September 1, 2008 2:18AM

I don't have any scans, but most of the cards in the first donruss baseball set are just terrible.. The red faced card of Dallas Green comes to mind. I think that was his name???

nam812 · September 1, 2008 5:56AM

Here are a few odd ones I found recently.

I knew about the 66 card, didn't know it happened again in 67. Were the pictures taken the same day (I know they used to do that) or was this a funny joke by Raymond.

That one is pretty bad. Doesn't help that the Chargers had perhaps the worst NFL uniform ever during that period. (Yes, it even made the 80s Patriots look cool).

Blackborder · September 2, 2008 9:49AM

Must be halftime.

1989FleerBillRipkencollector · September 2, 2008 9:56AM

Not all in the link are bad photos. Some funny names, funny cartoon on back etc.

Not to mention his entire uniform is airbrushed because he played for the Rams the previous season. Notice the Rams player next to him.

So, which one is Chris?

Ok sir, can you identify the man who assulted you?

Here's some cards here.
