FaceApp and iconic baseball cards? Oh, the possibilities ... let's begin

FaceApp and iconic baseball cards? Oh, the possibilities ... let's begin

This entry was posted on April 25, 2017 by BlowoutBuzz.

There's a new phone app that allows you to turn that frown upside down, get younger or get older all with a click on a screen,

It's called FaceApp and it's a free download for iPhone users to have some fun -- and naturally this collector instantly thought of baseball cards.

Some iconic cards won't make the cut as they don't have faces large enough for the app to read -- sorry Mike Trout and Kris Bryant key cards -- but the results from just a handful of cards this collector tested were worth a laugh.

Or a smile.

This gallery is just a start -- something for fun. Let Buzz know whose cards are worth a chuckle once they've been FaceApped and we'll add them right here.
