What's the Best & Worst looking T206?

[judsonhamlin]

[QUOTE=T206Collector;830425]Disagree on McLean -- this is one of my favorites because of the very dark blue uni and catcher's equipment. But it is childlike in its rendering to be sure....

Kind of my point- it should be a lot cooler than it is, which is disappointing.

Best: Lajoie Portrait
Worst: Chappelle

Did Spike have really bad TMJ or was he from northern Georgia ?

I think my worst has to go to a SLer.. Greminger.. he reminds me of the uncle from the Munsters...

Whoever mentioned Mike Mowrey is onto something, he is a bizarre looking (nice way of saying really ugly) guy when you see him in photographs as well.

Best--I like Powers, Walter Johnson, and many of the other catcher's gear poses

Worst-I can't believe nobody has mentioned Bill "glove on the wrong hand" Burns. I literally HATE that card more every time I see it.

I think we can put Purtell in the same anatomic curiosity category as Shannon. If this picture is accurate, he was build like a chimpanzee.

I swear I have a cousin built just like that... I think his knuckles drag the ground when he walks! Nice scan!

Best - Pattee w/ Tim Jordan second (not my pattee...I don't have mine scanned)

Worst - have to agree with Shannon

How cool is that. I was heading to grab my scan of Harry Pattee and then I see it's already here? Bill grabbed it from PSA and put it in the thread.

Thanks Bill. This is my vote for BEST looking card as well.

That was Grandpa, not uncle.

may be the most amusing thread I've come across in my few months on this forum.

Best: agree with many of the already mentioned examples (Chase pink, Cobb bat off shoulder, Dougherty portrait, Jorban batting, Pattee horizontal). What seems to catch my eye are the multi-colored backgrounds on action shots or portraits with unusual solid background colors. One example not yet mentioned is McIntyre brookly & chicago -- nice array of colors / clouds (image not mine). Also noticed that many of the Brooklynites have great backgrounds, and that the red in the Boston jerseys really stands out.

Worst: Egan all the way. did a double-take when I first saw it -- wondered if someone at the printing company lost their job for letting that get printed.
