Does someone have an E107 Ed Poole? I have an image of one, but it isn't mine and I don't want to rain on someone else's parade.

Default CRAZY GLUE- You can do some crazy things with it!
Who else but Ozark Ike was man enough to wear a pink t-shirt?

A entertaining discription of the wierdness of this card is given by Brenden C. Boyd and Fred C. Harris in The Great American Baseball Card Flipping, Trading and Bubble Gum Book. I would be happy to email a scan the description if anyone wants it. Just send me a PM.

Actually, the balls and the "high sign" are supposed to represent six home runs in three straight games.

Purtell looks like he's three feet tall.


Mundorf has another psychotic episode.

Default As always lots of great responses, but...
so far, the 48 Leaf Dillinger gets my vote for wierdest card. Kinda freaks me out. The T206 Abbott has the best description. Well done, Bob.

There's lots more out there. Can he be topped?
