The 1983 Topps card of Squires gets that honor. There is very little about this card that I like.
I don't mind the actual design of the card. Therefore that did not affect my decision. The striping color scheme works very well with the White Sox uniforms of that time.
Now the uniforms...there is one problem. I hated those uniforms. They replaced the softball uniforms the Sox had been wearing, but they were just as bad in their own way. Besides, Squires looks like his uniform is a bit too small for him. Squires wasn't a bulky, muscle guy either.
From the looks of the 'action' on the card, I am guessing Squires just walked and is jogging to 1st base. Other bloggers (like White Sox Cards and Night Owl Cards) are much better at the game of figuring out this type of stuff. In any case, it is a weak-looking shot, which is the main reason for my disdain.
This card does serve one purpose. At least it proves that everything Squires is not golden in my eyes (just most of it). So, Ed Mann, if you are reading this, this one is for you, buddy!
