When I think terrible and ugly rookies, these jump to mind:
Joe Jackson
Warren Spahn's 1948 Bowman (I would not call it a rookie, but everyone else does). Like the set, but what a horrible photo choice.
Pete Rose, Willie Stargell, and the other floating heads of 62 and 63.
Reggie Jackson's 1969 Milton Bradley
Mariano Rivera
Carlos Beltran
It is concerning to the artistic taste of collectors that a number of these are highly revered marquee cards in the hobby
