Phil Garner and the Electric Nose Neighbor

Seriously man, have you EVER seen a 'stache like that? I know this is the late-'70s Pirates and all, but that thing looks fake beyond words.

I feel like all those pin stripes make the thing even more spectacular, like a pink paisley tie worn with a purple striped suit or something.

I actually love the idea of this card: the on-deck batter and manager in the background, no doubt watching on of Garner's prodigious 9 home homeruns leave the park. But I can't get past the a mustache straight out of an 1800's saloon. Dude should be riding a horse, robbing banks, swilling whiskey and partying with Ms. Kitty on Gunsmoke, not playing baseball.

Have a good one everybody and goodnight Pumpsie Green, wherever you are

Phil Garner and the No Good, Very Bad Day

Where does one even begin in talking about what's wrong with this card? My only guess is that someone at Donruss (now Donnini) really had a thing for old Scrap Iron. I know it was 1982 and that computers where the size of small warehouses and there was no instant access to every baseball stat ever on the intertoobs but still... who was asleep at the wheel on this one? Did they have a few glasses of wine before putting this one together? At any rate, their mind was obviously elsewhere.

Seriously, how many errors can you find on this thing in it's amazing, headsplitting, earth shattering errorness?

Once again, thx to Daddy D for this card I'd never even seen before last week.
