I was gonna say the same thing. But somehow, it's also one of my favorite sets. Probably because of the affordability and player selection.. The fact that they're plain ol' ugly for some reason is a positive to me...

For whatever reason, I find the US Caramel set visually unappealing.

T205

...the ugly step-sister of T206.

Actually, I'll take all of the "T" designations (with exception to the dreadful T207) to the T206 set. I agree about E91.

I was wondering how long it would take before someone dropped T207 into the conversation! Never gets any love. Fine by me - those that are out there go further.

If you asked 'ugliest HOF'er card', outside of the E91 debacle set, I would choose the T207 Johnson - especially ugly when the registration is off.

And to the guy who said T205 - I blast forth a virtual raspberry.

...

Point made, Scott.

Of all the cards in the set, Johnson's got to be the butt-ugliest, even if the registration is spot on.

T205... where you can see pasty heads float among a sea of "gold"...

At least T206 portraits had the decency to include a pair of shoulders...
