Charlie "Victory" Faust
 
Did the 1911 Giant good luck charm ever appear on a tobacco issue?

Faust was tall, IIRC. Other than a player or manager you'd have to be an "undersized" 19th century mascot to get on a card.

Sorry, there are no cards of Charles Victory Faust.

Joe Jackson, Max Carey, Grover Alexander, & Charlie Faust. Who else is missing from the T206 set?

Ron- there's a bunch missing...I'll submit Smoky Joe Wood.

Why he is missing from the set, I have no idea. Interesting player with quite a story.

I visited his gravestone. It's next to a dog park, and Scott F. took me there with this dog.

I'd like to see that. Maybe I can take my dog on a road trip.

Not to be outdone, I used to mow the grass around Mel Ott's tomb. That's not a joke or a metaphor. I just had a job at the cemetery.
