You do realize that everything but the hair is airbrushed? Gamble had an Indians jersey on for the actual pic.

Sure, but I'd include his face in the non-airbrushed camp as well.

There are so many out there, but the one that always seems to make me cringe the most is Rich McKinney, 1973:

Just saw this one on eBay. Looks like a child's drawing on the refrigerator...

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

I think the footballs tend to have the most. Some of them are ridiculous.

Brockington was a Packer in 1971, when he debuted. In his first series 1972 card, they used an unaltered photo. In the third series, they edited the same exact photo, atrociously.
