Another example of Fleer just not giving a shit.

Mendoza as in "The Mendoza Line" fame...You see that look on his face? Either he just got look at his own batting stats (a career .245 OBP and .262 slugging pct), or someone just farted.
The only way the quality of the 1982 Fleer set makes sense is if they somehow got in a time machine and commissioned my high school basic photography class to take their photos. Even then, I’m pretty sure Mr. Carter gave us the f-stop and framing lessons within the first week. Take away the red border and this shabby baseball card becomes a post-modern work of art…The white of Mr. Mendoza’s jersey fading seamlessly into the bright white of the sky illustrating the fine line between existence and nothingness…OK, no more drinking on weeknights…

I think Fleer employed the same studio that took my Little League team photos every year. My mom would never pay the extra $7.99 to have them turn my individual shot into a sheet of “baseball cards” just like Mr. Mendoza’s. She was wise.
I don’t want to overstep my bounds here, but could i request an “Only one batting glove” tag?
And now that I’m looking at it, that batting glove looks more like a golf glove.
