Default Ugliest Card Ever

What's your choice for the ugliest card ever? Since it's my thread, I can make up the rules, and I'm going to exclude cards that are poorly drawn, like most of the W sets. Good art work, like a T206 or a 33 Goudey is fine, as long as the result is pure ugly.

I'm going to start things off with a card that's not really vintage, but is really ugly -- the 1972 Puerto Rican card of Goose Gossage.

I'm sure there is much worse and i'm not a card guy (more a memorabilia collector) but this card I think is an awful depiction of Speaker:

Holy crap is that Gossage ugly...

Anyways, I don't have a scanner so I looked up a few cards online. There's a few really good threads/forums out there for ugly cards. Here's a few of the favorites I found.

Wow. That Fernando V. card is pathetic. Just plain poor on a number of levels.

There are probably worse, but the 48 Bowman Spahn is awful!

Default Mossi

I was surprised to see no one had posted Mossi and was about to search for a pic when one appeared. Thank you. Any card of that guy would have to be in the top ten.

Default Can't believe no one has nominated...

Paul Richards from the 1951 Bowman set...if I had been Mr. Richards, I would have contacted a lawyer...amazingly enough, Mr. Richards was the first Giraffe to play professional baseball...you can look it up!

Default Any of those inserts

Any of the number of modern inserts with stars, explosions, planets, fire, or any other sort of crap in the background.
