2008 Topps #655 Aaron RowandAaron Rowand was a big fan favorite during his short stay in Philadelphia. So much so that Topps appears to have used a shot of Rowand batting in Philadelphia on this O8 Topps card and photoshopped on the Giants uniform. But Topps didn't stop there. They were apparently appalled by the looks of the local fans and photoshopped them out. Check out the fans to the left and right of Rowand. On both sides near the top of the photo you see a person in a light blue top. going down pink shirt w/ white hat, person looking stage left, Red shirt. Everybody to the left of Rowand has a twin sitting about a half dozen seats down on the other side of Rowand.
Here's to Topps Lazy PhotoShopping.

I think a saw another posting this year of a similar card where the fans were photoshopped. I wonder why Topps felt they had to do this in the first place. I agree that the technique is sloppy. Topps has access to thousands of photos. It doesn't seem it would be too hard to doctor up the fans so that no one would notice.
Heh, this would be a good submission to Photoshop Disasters.
