Maybe not sad, but he sure looks mad, doesn't he!

I don't have a scan of it handy but there is one of the poses of Pete Hotaling in the Old Judge set where he is holding his stomach. I have always thought it looked like he was about to vomit, definitely one of the "strangest" poses on a card.

Maybe not the saddest, but he looks a little pissed.

How has this thread reached page two without mention of the saddest-looking man to grace a Topps card on multiple occasions? Poor Bill. That wad of chewbacca permanently lodged in his left cheek ultimately cost him most of his tongue.

Rhett:

I think you mean this card (scan from an auction - not a personal example). Definitely one of the more curious poses from the Old Judge set:

That isn't the one.

When I get home from work I'll see if I can find a scan of it somewhere.

it is still a beautiful world.
Strive to be happy.

This card adds a different kind of sadness into the mix. Look at that surrendering grin on Bobby's face. He's thinking, "Man, how in heck did I NOT launch that one into the seats???!!!!!"

It looks like he is saying "how the heck did I just hit myself in the face!!"
