Merkle throwing
Merkle throwing would be a fun one to display.
I've always found the artwork on that beautiful and then you can start with the story of the 1908 season, and the stigma attached to what was otherwise a good career.
Also, not sure of the type of guests you have but in certain company you may want to avoid the common name for the play that he is infamous for...but his boner could lead to a memorable conversation as well?!?!
Other nominees....
- Powers (untimely demise)
- Maloney or Del Howard (my wife approves of t206s because she likes the "circus" pictures in the background)
- Not sure where you live but maybe a local team or your favorite team?
