This is the only fella in the entire set pictured with facial hair - why?

I think he was a spy for the North Pole!!

I know many teams of the era had prohibitions against facial hair. Maybe the Phillies did not...

John Titus has the coolest card in the set, I believe. The Johnny Damon of his day (facial hair wise - couldn't care less about what everyone else was doing).

When he died in the 40s his claim to fame was he was known as the last player to wear a handlebar mustache

Who new? You just created I whole new market for that card - better than the horizontals - the mustache subset (maybe I can get it on the PSA Registry and be number one at something)

Unfortunately I think you're right. I was bidding on an SGC 30 Titus last night on eBay that went to an unheard of $35
