Check out this awful, could have been awesome, card

Why would Topps do this to this card? Two HOFers autos cut off. On top of that the card was limited to only 3 so you would think they would do it right.

Yuck. But still not as bad as the Triple Signed Hide with Mantle/Arod/Wright.

 

[A_Pharis]

Wow. The slaughtered that Mantle.

P.S.: A-Rod... really?

 

[Rudzud]

Eh, I've seen worse. They did the best they could with the space they had.

Isn't that the point though? They could have made
the card however they wanted to fit the cuts.

You say that now but before he got caught everyone was on his (small) nuts.

They should have put ARod on the back of the card and maybe rounded it to 4 players with a decent prospect (Future).

WaxHeaven: Many people were, but I've always been Anti-Yankee.. especially ARod.

I am the biggest anti-Yankee guy but he was clearly on pace to break Bonds' record.

I dislike Bonds a lot more than the Yankees.

Sure, if they put 1 cut on the back.

It's Ruth's number also. Now that is a 1/1. Oh wait, Ruth isn't on the card? Dammit.

 

[aminors]

Wow, that's disgusting.

Why did they make that card horizontally? All three sigs would have fit just fine....
