As someone from Milwaukee, I LOVE all of the love you guys are giving him! I used to live near his house in Milwaukee and was told that the spindles of the railing to the second floor were made out of baseball bats.

I think the amount of time he spent in Milwaukee didn't help his case a ton as guys who play here are often overlooked. I also think he didn't get as much attention because he wasn't flashy, on or off the field, and he wasn't the best looking guy in the majors, something which I think influences the prices of the stuff we collect whether people acknowledge it or not.

Here's a super sharp picture of him in 1954 that I love.
