Default Show me your mustache cards

Posted By: Jim T

I picked up a Titus this week that also happens to be my first Cycle back which I am excited about. I seem to recall reading that this is the only player in the white border set that has a mustache. If that is true I find it an interesting contrast to many OJ's and other 19th century cards in which many players sported mustaches that would have rivaled even Rollie Fingers.

So show me your mustache cards.

If anyone has insight into early 20th century American culture I would be interested in knowing what happened to the facial hair. Was it a just shift in men's style, or did the availability of more modern razors just make it easier to keep clean shaven?
