Weird for me to see so many HOFers in this thread. To me a HOFer card could never qualify as the most boring card of all time, even if he looks like he's falling asleep.
The 72 minor league award card is a great submission for this thread, but at those awards cards have some color to them and are visually pleasing. For me one of the most boring cards that pops into my mind is the 1972 high number Pat Corrales in action card. Can't see his face and somehow someone at Topps decided a photo in which HIS GLOVE ISN'T EVEN ON qualified as an "action" shot. |

I'm not sure if it's the most boring card ever, but there's nothing exciting about Tim Harkness circa the 1963 set.

For some reason that '63 Harkness was one of the toughest cards -- aside from superstars and high numbers -- when I was completing that set. I think the card's overall boredom factor (OBF) is mitigated somewhat by the spectacularly bad airbrush job on the inset photo.

I guess Harkness came to the Mets from the Pterodactyl's? LOL

LOL! I guess that kind of takes it off the boring list now.

I hated the 1973 boyhood photos. The photo quality was awful, and I couldn't have cared less what Catfish Hunter looked like when he was 6.

LOL on the 1978 Topps Pete Rose.
Funny how you remember stuff like this, but I pulled that card back when I was a kid in 78 and thinking "cool I got a Pete Rose....sitting in the dugout..." and being somewhat disappointed. I was much happier in 1979 when I saw that card, like that's how you should do Pete Rose. At least his 78 RB card is decent.
