Not a fan of most head shots...


There are two that really bother me...the 1961 Topps Harmon Killebrew...my favorite player, TERRIBLE looking card. I get the Senators/Twins hat issue...but that situation created some really bad cards. The other is the 1967 Topps Mickey Mantle. The close up head shot, ugly green dugout paint backdrop. Such an iconic year, a simple pose of him swinging or holding a bat...anything different...and I do believe that card would actually be worth more.
