The back of this Zeenut card makes me smile because of all the effort Buck Barker did to wrap the biographical info of the player on the front (not shown) around the James Cagney transfer on the back.

Only example of a card I've seen with Brother Matthias in it, and the only copy I've seen, and Fred Merkle in Yankees gear with a cigar is pretty cool. Maybe more are out there somewhere? Babe Ruth and wife in the center gifting the car to his mentor in front of St. Mary's school is pretty sweet too.

A ginormous head of a President on a woman’s body is always good for a chuckle.

Charlie Hollocher was a great baseball player who's career was pretty much derailed by crippling depression.

Numerous times during his career he disappeared from the team without warning, outright quit the team, or left to be treated for "stomach ailments."

He walked away from the game at age 28. He killed himself at age 44.

It's nice to see him in what I would assume was a period of happiness. The smile seems genuine enough, anyway.
