I'd really rather see some airbrushing than Photoshopping really. Airbrushing at least takes some... effort? Not exactly talent, but it takes some time.<BR/><BR/>As much as I like Allen & Ginter and UD Goudey, they're nothing but products of Photoshop. For whatever reason, that kinda cheapens the idea a bit.<BR/><BR/>Oh, buy the way, I added Card Junkie to my list. I'd managed to overlook it when I set the list up, oops.Benhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03728779862706637119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5535474485736373926.post-16450082747655539242009-01-18T23:56:00.000-05:002009-01-18T23:56:00.000-05:00Maybe I'm sick but I love horribly airbrushed card...Maybe I'm sick but I love horribly airbrushed cards. Sadly, by '89 Topps actually *gasp* started making an effort to get more up to date photos and now they've gotten lazy again and just photoshop everything. Airbrushed takes me back to a bygone era in baseball cards. But you're right the Laga pink jersey is ridiculous. I think someone messed up and got some red ink on his shirt, then thought "well I'll just spread this out and crap now the whole jersey's pink I don't have time to start over."Jeffrey Wolfehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15079647714239923829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5535474485736373926.post-17997138378861684002009-01-18T23:29:00.000-05:002009-01-18T23:29:00.000-05:00The 1987 Mike Laga is one of the worst airbrush jo...The 1987 Mike Laga is one of the worst airbrush jobs of all-time. Who in their right mind thought any team played in pink uniforms?<BR/><BR/>As a child of the '70s who had seen the airbrushing actually improve from the '70s through the course of the '80s, the Laga card shocked me, because it was if it was a holdover from the bizarre 1970s airbrushing.<BR/><BR/>And if you think the Fontenot card looks fake, check out the 1978 Topps Mike Paxton.
