  Evers was the National League MVP (then knows as the Chalmers Award) in 1914. His counterpart in the American League, Eddie Collins, played for the Athletics in the Series that year. www.baseball-reference.com/awards/awards_1914.shtml#NLmvp

  This is a colorized version of the black and white adjacent. This was an early tobacco baseball card and probably worth a lot of money.

  I have never seen a version of this kind of baseball card before. Great to see the past versions of what so many of us collect today.

  Part of the Cubs' Tinker to Evers to Chance double play combination. Ogden Nash commented poetically on his jutting jaw: Line-Up for Yesterday E is for Evers, His jaw in advance; Never afraid to Tinker with Chance. — Ogden Nash, Sport magazine (January 1949) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johnny_Evers
