I think there are many candidates for the wost, so I'll let others chime in there. I will say I think the BEST (and honestly the only airburshed card I can think of that I care for at all...) is the '72 Topps Nolan Ryan.

This is also interesting in that by the time Ryan played in the regular season with the Angels in '72, they were no longer using this cap - had moved onto the capital A version that they then used for much longer. There are a few unearthed pictures I've seen recently with Nolan wearing the authentic version of the cap that was airbrushed, so I'm guessing it must have been used in spring training in 1972...
