Default Which non-HoFer do you collect? (and why)

Time to get back to prewar. Which prewar ballplayer do you have a real Jones for? What about him attracts you? Hall-of-Famers need not apply. Show cards if ya got 'em.

For me it's Clyde (Deerfoot) Milan. He was signed on the same scouting trip that brought WaJo to Washington, and was a good enough all-around guy that he and Johnson were roommates for years. Milan led the American League in stolen bases a couple years in the teens, and hit over .300 in 1911-12-13.
