Got a few cards in the mail from a big trade on I made on TCDB. 2 of the cards that came in the trade may very well be some of the ugliest cards in my collection.
The first is a 2018 Topps Gallery Heritage #H-28. As soon as I looked at this card, I thought this is the ugliest depiction of Noah Syndergaard I have ever seen. He looks sort of like that kid from the movie "Mask". I even showed my wife and she agreed it was a very ugly card and a terrible drawing. I mean, Noah's lip is kind of off-centered, his face is sort of twisted, his eyes don't look right.
It's a horrible looking card. I really like Topps Gallery, but not this one.
Judge for yourself:
The second card is also a Topps Gallery card. This time it is a 2020 Topps Gallery - Rainbow Foil #77. The first thing I thought when I looked at this card is it looks like some cheap Jesus painting you could buy at the big flea market in Sevierville at exit 207 on I-40. This looks like it was either done by a 12 year old or some 80 year old grandmother. Remember the scene in Goodfellas when Tommy's Mom is showing the crew her paint by number paintings after the killed Billy Batts? That's what I am talking about.
Instead of a ball, they should have had Syndergaard holding a dove or a lamb or something. Horrible.
I'm going to have to page through my folders and look for some other ugly cards.
Here it is:
That's all for now. Until next time.........
