"One time I was in the office [of Yoo-Hoo] and the phone rang when no one else was around. I always answer a ringing phone, so I did. The woman who was calling asked if Yoo-Hoo was hyphenated. I said, 'No ma'am, it's not even carbonated.'"~ from Yogi Berra's 1989 autobiography.

I typically don't mind logo and team names being airbrushed over on non-licensed cards. A solid-color, or plain white, uni doesn't look that bad in such cases. One with pinstripes, however, looks completely ridiculous. Today's featured card would have been much better had they used one of Pittsburgh's other uniforms.
I've never seen this set before... I'll have to track one down on eBay. I'm not a big fan of airbrushing logos, but my love for oddballs trumps lack of logos. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteSome don't look bad without logos- like the 80s/90s stuff. I don't like the Panini stuff these days.
