“ Certified blurry card! ” -Theron_Nett

“ I reckon this image needs replaced. But Jim certainly was a marvel, especially after his No-hitter 1993. True inspiration. ” -Derek McDonough

“ Funny, a thread was just posted about using a photo for a card image, and this one here pops up on the RCotD the same day. Come to the CCD side, Luke! The CCD type scanner is your friend! ” -CollectingAfterDeath

“ I used to love watching him pitch. I saw him pitch in person at least 10 times at Anaheim Stadium (The Big A). ” -tinyshogun

“ I guess I'd rather have a bad scan than no scan... but this is pretty bad. ” -jackal726

“ Not crazy about the front . . . Back is rather pedestrian . . . Card actually looks pretty ugly . . . ” -georgecf

“ Words cannot describe how clean this card is! If only the signature didn’t overlap the picture a little bit. ” -curling2019

“ Nice autographed card! Only drawback from autos from this era is the authenticity sticker on the back, feel like it takes away a lot from the card ” -IfbBirdsCards

“ He was truly remarkable. ” -muskie027

I missed commenting on an ON CARD Auto? Either I'm slipping or I was having problems connecting to the site that day.

The scan is actually pretty good for this card IMO. Not sure what others are seeing. I have this card-my favorite player from my home town to boot! Soooo if you have Abbott cards up for trade whether they're on my want list or not-I want them so shoot me a proposal! Thanks

Looks like it was re-uploaded after the comments had been opened up. Guessing the comments about the bad scan were put in before the updated image.
