Bugs Bennett 1918
Facepack upgrade, pictured during his brief tryout with the 1921 Chicago White Sox. He was featured in the March 27, 1921 edition of the Chicago Tribune under his fictitious name of "Joe Morris." He apparently thought that he stood a better chance of sticking in the majors using that pseudonym and, while it worked to land him a brief spot with Chicago, his ruse was quickly discovered by eagle-eyed newspaper reporters.
