I was wondering how some collectors view Cards of Players with the wrong Image. |

the cards with the wrong image would be last on my list of cards I would want for that player. |

Because I'm not sure how to present the card and, for some reason, it feels like cheating to me. If I have a Cy Young card I want it o be Cy Young, dammit. |

It depends- it's more glaring on portrait poses than action poses. The Cy Young/Irv Young doesn't bother me as much as the Yum Yum of Anson, which is actually a portrait photo of Ned Williamson. It's more obvious in that case. |

I prefer that the card actually picture the player depicted and, unless going after the complete set, would likely avoid buying such cards. The cy young/irv young e98 is a prime example of a card I really wouldnt want to spend a lot of money on. The only card that I make a small exception for is the e93 eddie collins which I believe most collectors assume to be jimmy collins. At least in that case, its still two hofers. Nevertheless, its my least favorite hofer card in the set. |

For my money, the picture on the card establishes the card's identity, not it's caption. So in accordance with my thinking, it follows that there are no wrong pictures, only wrong captions on cards. |

What? Did I make a mistake on my understanding of the term "caption"? Of course what I meant was the player's name on the card, not the card manufacturer's identification. But you are the Judge. I will do my time in the cooler. |

Given that I am only collecting one card of each player, having the correct image is very impostnat to me. |

I don't really like the cards of Cy Young with images of Irv Young. The e98 and e98 for example... I would rather have an e93 and e94 because its actually CY ! Irv Young is on more than e92, e97, e98, also the w555 and probably alot more.... |

If I were collecting the e97 or any of the other sets picturing Irv Young instead of Cy, I'd probably rather just go without the card than spend a thousand dollars or so on a card of "Cy Young" that doesn't even picture him. |
