Is this the worst card design ever?

[James52411]

Good call on 1995 Fleer.

The weird thing about 1995 Fleer is that players from different divisions had different card designs. You posted the AL Central, here are the other division designs.

Yeah, threads was pretty bad, but i think this year's bowman platinum auto set is worse...

How can it be anything beside that National Chicle garbage?

Makes my eyes bleed

1991 Fleer is a great design. I'd put it in my top 50 or so.

I am a fan of the 1991 Fleer, and 1990 and 1991 Donruss sets! Some of the first packs I ever opened! A lot of good memories opening those packs with my dad!

Ticket to stardom...those dual gu cards are atrocious.

But nothing beats just minors designs. Truly the worst designed cards in evey way shape & form for a decade......yes a DECADE.

Isn't the design of Chicle a white border?

I assume it's about the embarrassingly bad paintings.

In that case, aren't Tempy Moore Sketch cards the worst designed set of all time?

Technically those were inserts. Ha.

Just goes to show you how aesthetic taste differs. I think 1991 Topps is fantastic looking.

If you are going to rip a Topps design from the 1990s, I'd go with any design from 1992-1995, with the 1993 design being the worst. Talk about boring:

Yeah really, how the hell does anyone not like 91 topps. I know we all have different opinions so I won't say mine is right but I just kinda thought that was something we all subconciously agreed on. I think 91 topps is one of my favorite sets of all time.

Definitely disagree. The 1999 Just minors set is one of my favorites. Top 10 no doubt.

 

[notjomommasclint]

Tri star signa cuts? Moments and milestones? Those ny cards with the felt on them? Ud world of sports? The football fan favorite autos (where 76% of the card was border? Razor baseball?

I've put a lot of thought into this for some reason

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Different strokes for different folks.

 

[Ghumbs]

Anything Donruss EEE.

 

[zach]

That's not too bad when you compare it to the 1986 and 1987 Topps cards. Those were ugly.

 

[CAROLINA BOSOX]

2006 and 2007 Bowman Chrome cards were dissapointing after the 2005 was so nice looking.

Completely agree. Earlier I said 91 Fleer was in my top 50. 91 Topps would crack my top 20.

I understand differing opinions on these things, but it's still funny to me that a design can be mentioned as one of the absolute worst by some and the absolute best by others. Complete opposite ends of the spectrum. I think some truth can be found in this, too, because (as an example) even 95 Fleer's biggest fan isn't going to put it in their top 1,000 card designs.
