Default Avatar story (not the movie)

My avatar is a random 1921 Zeenut I picked from a dealer's online inventory, because at avatar selecting time my old computer had just taken a dump and I did not have a functioning scanner. I am a longtime collector of Zeenuts, and I love them, but it could have just as easily been from another PCL set like the Obaks, as I have lived in or near (or have relatives in) six of the cities from the old Pacific Coast League. Then again I could have chosen a caramel or tobacco or strip card...I am not a fussy pre-war collector. I was told at one time which player it is, but now have forgotten, and I still do not own an example. Of course over time it has become part of me...I spot this fellow in an old thread and I instantly know "I posted that drivel."

My user name is a grammatically challenged yet rhyme-tastic way of identifying myself:

Brian P be me
