Show off the worst autos you've seen

[MrMet]

We all complain about crappy looking autos, I figure lets start a thread where we can post examples...obviously this thread is nothing without pics, so post em up. I know this is the baseball section, but the first few examples I found were football cards...

The legend

Probably took Cesar 2 minutes to sign his 3000 chrome autos in 2010 because....

He signed the front

And back

Can't remember the worst auto Ive seen, but the best is clearly Brian Bannister.

A facsimile, but this card always stood out to me.

Alot of Hispanic prospects early Topps/Bowman cards have print writing 'cuz it's taken off their Topps Contract and they don't have practiced Sigs yet.

For my vote, Randy Johnson...

Is there a RJ card in specific that looks bad? The ones I looked up don't look to bad for a lefty.

We had a OMLB ball and they had put it in the case upside down. Maybe they thought it was Frank Robinson backwardds....:lol:

Here's a near replica image:

Ah lol, that is a bizarre R indeed. He gets a passing grade for effort, (as to me the worst ones are abbreviations) but it looks like he wrote the name "Ziaurl 1iuimn" :|

Being left handed myself I am bad but not quite that terrible. (bias)
I wrote someone a note in pen not too long ago and they thought it was "Lord of the Rings runic stone language" :lol:

Awful signature but he's a future star

The two worst I've ever seen............

You've got to be kidding me if you guys think these are bad autographs. Randy Johnson has one of the nicest sigs in baseball. That's a poor example of a Biggio but it's far from terrible.

 

[BBCgalaxee]

Ichiro and maddux have horrible autographs.

Probably no surprise since he has autographs in every set and you've all probably pulled 100 of them, but "Goo" sure isn't great.

I am surprised my countryman hasn't been mentioned yet. He was very popular in these kind of posts:
