What is the fugliest card in your collection?
 

This grotesque thing floated around ebay for two years. I bid 4 times. The 3rd time it was up I bid $90 and lost. The 4th time I won it for about $75. E107s definitely have value no matter how bad, but still I'm tempted to crack it out and soak it in carburetor cleaner or gasoline. There is a thread up now about GAI grading. I think "Poor" was generous.

That's a great price for an E107. This is probably my uglylist card right now.

Duplicate post.

My one beater T210.I absolutely love the pose and hope to add a better one someday.

OK, so you knew it was coming.....:D

Hey John...
 

I think you misread the title of the thread ;)

Mike, I think you can retire that Waddell. I can't imagine any card topping that one.:D

I wouldn't kick any of them out of bed so far. Well, maybe Waddell, but he ate crackers in bed. Gotta agree John's doesn't qualify for ugly.

About 20 years ago we got a new puppy. He managed to get at my cards and chewed up 2 or 3. One just so happened to be a 1956 Topps Ted Williams in Ex condition. I was sick, but it was my fault. It almost looked as bad as Waddell. Well, maybe half as bad. I sold it on ebay a couple of years ago for $19 and the guy tried to flip it the next week. He got $14.

John--a win-win situation. The card still looks great and a mouse got a good meal.

Not a bad fugly card to have as a Phillies collector...

LOL, so true.

I hate the Phillies, but that is a great card!

Actually I hate the Phils of today and the last 30 years. Three of my favorites of all time are John Titus, Sherry Magee, and Grover Alexander. Eccentric. Being strange myself, I can appreciate.

It may be ugly, but it's still a Magie.:cool:

Fugly and I love it!

Here is mine

I've always been a fan of my dirty Hooker.

And every Hooker needs a companion...

Not sure what Beckett was thinking when they graded this one as "Poor"

a coupla rough ones

Also my collection of headless and dismembered R&S'

Burnt Wheat
 

Looks like someone caught it on fire.

And my ugliest

Surprised...
 

That my Rousch didn't receive a 1 :( lol

No pic
 

I posted a scan of my fugly T206 Joe Kelley in another similar thread maybe a month or two ago.
It elicted a few biohazard comments...in fact I think our friend Chris Browne is still itching just from viewing the scan.
I won't repost the scan for medical reasons.

Boys we got us some fugly here:eek:

Keep 'em coming!

Somewhere between beater and fugly

That's very appealing, Rob. Sometimes ya' take what ya' can get, huh?

I had some 1990-1 Donruss, and those are my benchmark for cheap, ugly cards. The stock seemed like Kinko's cover paper.

I think I got John beat! Plus a couple more.

I grew up a few miles from where Edd lived. Knocked on his door when I was 17 and he was about 80. I wish I had had some good stuff for him to sign. All I had was a 61 Fleer. He signed it and gave me a signed HOF postcard as well. I really wish I hadn't been so damned shy. I could have probably sat and talked with him about baseball for hours. He was friendly enough and all old men have to do is talk.

Here is mine.

Got this one from ebay, pretty bad

I have some other beat up commons lying around but these are up there for noteworthy guys...

You definitely have to take what you get with some issues:

You asked for it!

At least it's the rarer variation.

So awesome!

Not Complaining! It's an Old Put Back!
 

Yes it's really hideous, but I'm not complaining. It's the only Blue Old Put Back E98 I have ever owned, and 1 of only 5 Blue Backgrounded E98s with an Old Put Overprint that I know of to exist!

All of our "Uglies" are about 100 years old, so they [I]should [I] look beat up!
I love them all!;)

Tim Kindler

Yep, I'm only 58 and I look like ****.

Thanks for the card buddy :) I collect beaters so this thread is nirvana for me. But just for the record this fugly beast now joins my clan of cards :)

This Chase was gifted to me raw and I love it so much I needed to entomb it...ok, I slabbed it so it wouldn't get worse...

I ain't taken the cake here, but I got some Fuglys.
I think the caramel is the only thing holding this one together. And, Now that's a CREASE!
The others speak for themselves.

well...
 

my primary set is SGC40, so no fugliness there. This one is in my 'name on top' collection:

Just returned this one to my collection:

The only Goudey I saved from the Lipset set I bought last Spring.

I know it's a hi-res scan, but I really am not trying to encourage anyone from the ohio/kentucky border area to use this as the cornerstone to creating a new set of '33 Goudey forgeries. If anyone really wants a forgery of this card, I'll make you one.

Filled a gaping hole in the HOF collection. It's in two totally separate pieces! Someday, I may have it rebacked.

This card is looking better and better, compared to some of these.

Sweet! :p

Here's mine:

Doesn't hold a candle to some of the others...

Shown way too many times, but it fits the thread...

Just about every technical flaw on this one.

Crease? Check.
Paper Loss? Check.
Pinhole? Check.
Non-factory cut on bottom left corner? Check
Scrapbook paper on back? Check

One of my favorite ugly (I assume that is what fugly stands for, right?)
 

This one is not only missing chunks, but is in two pieces (maybe three...I can't remember if the bottom left corner is detached as well). I scanned the card while in its sleeve, so as to not deal with Mr. Evers disintergrating during sleeve removal.
