Here's a card from a set that most people like, but I've seen more than a few complaints about the image: the 1965 Topps Ernie Banks. Most cards from the set are either posed batting shots or normal portraits. But Ernie for some reason seems to be a super close profile shot. I've seen people say it's cropped too close. I've always loved the card and don't really care, but this could meet the requirement for an "iconic set" but a bad image...

I think they took a bunch of profile shots for the awful Embossed insert set. Topps didn't have a better picture of Ernie than this? I equally hate the 1970/72 Dick Allen cards.
