Fatty not so happy......

[Leon]

Never seen this series before but Fatty isn't looking so happy . The card is approximately 3x4. For those unfamiliar with his foray into baseball here is a blurb from baseball-reference...

"Born March 24, 1887 in Smith Center, KS USA
Died June 29, 1933 in New York, NY USA
Fatty Arbuckle, better known as a silent film comedian, owned the Vernon Tigers of the PCL for a couple years. The team won the PCL championship in 1919.

Just as Arbuckle's life was quite controversial, so was the Vernon team during his ownership. The team was accused of bribing opposing players, and although the team was exonerated, one Vernon player was expelled.

Arbuckle, for his part, complained that the team was taking up all his time with its promotional needs, so he sold it in 1921.

Baseball cards were made of the Tigers when Arbuckle owned them, including a card of Arbuckle in which he resembles Babe Ruth.
