I nominate the W515 Cobb (and strip cards in general, but that one stands out). If the registration is poor he looks evil instead of smiling. Not my scan, but here's a pretty bad example:

The above is a great example, some of the strip card examples from the 1920s are just terrible.

No doubt this Cobb Strip is one of the most ridiculously ugly cards I have ever seen....

What is up with the Alien Skull ? Could the artist have been sending a message ? His cranium is about to hatch a Lil Tyrus.

I'd pretty much nominate almost any of the w515's. That Cobb is pretty bad, but I've always thought that the Grover was absolutely the most hideous card ever.

The pic of Grover is artist rendering Steroid Era version. If Grover would have been hitting the horse hormones, his head would have certainly looked like that... The Grover and Ty are absurd. Had to be a Wacky Pack for kids back in the day... Those suck.

While a hemorrhoid may be purple...purple is also the color of dentistry...if I remember my history of dentistry class...something to do with saint applonia...the patron saint of dentistry...so, Barry, I like purple too!

I 2nd the e90-1 jackson...i hate it...and if i owned one...i'd throw darts at it!

I also hope he was kidding, if not, he should be banned from the board and deported. Everyone is entitled to his/her own opinion, just not that one! (now I'm kidding)

That Reese greatly resembles the 1907 Red Belt pc... Another terrific card.
