I got this one in a little while ago and was thinking how ugly the card is. The only reason I even bid on it is my completest attitude of trying to get all of Ozzie's cards plus it is numbered 1/2 which is Ozzie's number.

those Tri Star cut auto's are absolutely aweful.. who in their right mind thought it would be a good idea to produce such garbage? I have my players card too only because I took it in trade.. I sure as hell wouldn't pay a dime for it otherwise..

as for other ugly cards.. alot of the late 80's oddball issues are pretty ugly so its hard to pick just one. I've been penny sleeving my whole PC the last couple days so going back through all the old cards that I've had for almost 20 years now and it amazes me how far cards have come from all that primitive card stock and terrible photography.

The bright side here is at least TriStar made it so that the auto was horizontally placed on the card.

gotta love Mariano chilling out.. the best though is Chipper Jones in his JORTS

Haha, I forgot about that Chipper! :lol:

It seems having players in everyday clothes was a big thing in the early 90s for some reason. I had tons of early 90s basketball cards with players in their street clothes and wearing funky suits. I maybe wrong, but I don't recall any 80s sets having such cards and I don't remember it being done as much in the later sets.

Is there a sadder card than this?

Dude is in a uniform he should never have been in, with a sour look on his face, with poor coloring on the card to begin with, and a fugly 88 Fleer border.

Whenever I think of a pathetic card, this one always comes to mind.

What sucks for me is ugly DK paintings I don't like. There are a couple...

It sucks because there are a million parallels. Actually that year wasn't so bad! But the next year was the year with a million parallels, and I liked the CC, but....

I think the Jennings is ugly in this set. It's sad because I have a ton of them. Ah well.... so goes the life of the player collector.
