    Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.

    This sounds like a good Baseball Card Theater video. He did eyebrows, but never mustaches amazingly enough. I wish he would make more of these. image

    Edit: I stand corrected! But "Not Cliff Johnson" is still my favorite. image

    BTW - apparently in 1981 you were pretty much a weirdo if you didn't have a stache. a quick search of 1982 topps traded reveals roughly 70/30 in favor of the moustache.

    So who wants to track percentage of moustaches in Topps sets through the years?

    though I do not, I wish that number was made available.


    I'd guess probably 93-94 are low moustache years.

    Since there is no distinction on what sport, I'll go pucks

    because when you think of guys with Economics degrees from Princeton, you think of noted NHL goon, George Parros. I mean c'mon, dude has a clothing company called Stashe Gear.

    and one would be remissed for not including the greatest mustache for mustache trade of all-time.

    Not sure how hockey was added without the first mention being Lanny McDonald before listing George Parros, but bring on the walrus.

    Take your pick from these

    no no no. You failed to adjust for era. As you can see from the Blackwell example, that stashe was par for the course. Lanny played in an era when every Canadian rocked a stashe which downgrades his. For every Lanny McDonald there is a Joel Quenneville or Paul McLean who can userp him on any given growth period. Parros is A) rocking a stashe in contemporary America, being an American where the stashe has passed away save for law enforcement and Brooklyn/Williamsburg based hipsters being ironic drinking PBRs. B) Parros is infinitely cooler than McDonald. C) Parros never rocked a Canadian Tuxedo. D) Parros uses his stashe and clothing company for charitable endeavors. E) McDonald just looks like an archetypal Canadian from the 70's/80's. Parros looks like he would be equally comfortable shooting low budget "films" in the San Fernando Valley region, penning his published economics articles on a vintage Underwood typewriter, portraying a villain in a random soap opera cameo, or punching Shawn Thornton's 50 CC brain back into it's natural pudding resting state. F) By my era-adjusted calculations, Parros checks in at 5.2 MOR (mustache over replacement). McDonald trails by 2.2 MOR. Clearly you haven't thought this through.

    Notice how in that photo his chest hair is already a 3rd of the way up his neck, seemingly attempting to climb up and join the party on his upper lip.

    The Hogan stash might be one of the most famous of all time.

    I understand your point but I have to disagree. Lanny was/is the true mustache king. Often copied but never equaled.

    I was always a big fan of Harold Snepsts and his mustache when he was here in Detroit....

    He might be the lady-tickler king to some people, but not for me. His duster simply had a higher profile because he was a better player than the MacLeans or Quennevilles and in his Calgary (Cal Gary for Canadians) he just let it overgrow. He should be awarded no points for poor grooming. That's the lip-caterpillar of a lazy slob. Plus he's a ginger....subtract points accordingly. Lanny had the Dane Cook of dirt-squirrels. Guys like Parros and McLean are the Louis CK's of tea-strainers - a mustache's mustache. Parros and Quenneville keep their food-retainers relatively tight. Let's not pretend Q's cookie-duster wasn't a skirt-magnet in it's prime. For Quenneville's stache, Janet Jones or Carrie Underwood or any other famous hockey wife would be slumming it.

    image
    that's the type of lip-cap that makes velvet ropes recoil.

    The duster is a lifestyle for guys like Parros, Quenneville, or MacLean. The only time you won't find a lip-sweater on Parros is when it's liberated for charity. I've never seen MacLean or Q without the soup-strainer. That wasn't the case for Lanny. His conveniently came along when Burt Reynolds made the dirty-sanchez passe.

    Parros, Quenneville, or MacLean wouldn't be caught dead without a push-broom. Parros, Quenneville, or MacLean would never rock that 70's molestache either.

    MacLean can equal the walrus look and then trump Lanny with the Wilford Brimley cloning. There is a sophistication to a Quenneville stache. His wife is a certified tobaccoist so you know Q is no stranger to a stogie in one mitt, and a toddy of bourbon in the other while a leather-bound book rests on the arm of a smartly chosen arm-chair in his study. Marry those with that mouth-brow and you're talking about a time when men would take back the streets. The only reason Q isn't taking back the streets at present is because he never surrendered those streets. In Parros' case, he only lives in states whose flag has the type of crest that spurs one into battle. I'm not implying Lanny's stache is the equivalent to Don Cherry's attention seeking jackets, I'm just saying Zooey Deschanel's hopeless nerd persona thinks it's a little disingenuous.
