Show me your mustache cards

Posted By: Frank Wakefield

Took a while to dig out Piano Legs Gore....

In 1880, for the Cubs, Gore lead the National League in hitting with a .360 average. Earned him the cover of the Spalding Guide the following year. And I suspect he did not know that his 1880 On Base % of .399 and Slugging average of .463 were also tops. Gore played with Cap Anson and King Kelly that year, the Cubs finished in 1st place.

Gore is depicted on this card with mustache when he played with the New York Giants of the NL. He was also with the Giants of the Players League in 1890, and ended his career with 20 games for the National League St Louis Browns at the end of the 1892 season.
