Topps Photo Shop
You know, it is pretty good. Topps' regular issue sets have been doing this now with abandon for several years in order to show the hot new acquisitions/draft picks with their current team. I actually find it disappointing. In their desperation to have the most current "look" possible, at what point does it really become too much? I'm not suggesting they don't have the right, and they obviously have the skill. But, should they be doing this? Is it awful to have an image of the guy in a minor league or other uniform, or to not be able to showcase the latest FA signing? At what point does it become messing with reality/history? I don't want to make this more than it is, but it just really has started to rub me the wrong way. When they used to do it, you could tell at a glance they had done work. Now, with the technology they have, it looks like the photo was snapped as shown. And that bothers me. I guess I'm old enough now to be labeled a curmudgeon.
