A 1915 advertisement for Edelweiss Beer which appeared in Chicago newspapers.
“Now rest your orbs on Percy Mann, a triple-action baseball fan. He knows each player’s pedigree. On hand at every contest, he removes his collar, vest and coat, and strives to get the umpire’s goat. He roots when home team is ahead, whether it’s White Sox, Cubs, or Fed. Says Eddie Collins is a bird and Heiny Zim‘s a ‘wiz’ on third. When our boys win he lifts a cheer, and when they lose he drops a tear. In either case, he homeward flies: Case of Good Judgment–Edelweiss”
