Does anyone know if there is any kind of baseball ephemera for Al Schulz? He played for 1912-14 NY NL, 1914-15 BUF FL and 1916 CIN NL. I looked throughout the web but the best I could find is a team photo of BUF FL from 1915 which does not list the player names... Any help would be appreciated especially a photo of this 20 game winner. thanks

There is a possibility he is pictured on the T210 Series 1 card for Savannah.

According to Baseball-Reference Al Schulz played for Savannah in 1909, 1911-1912--however they have no record of him playing in 1910, but there is also a "Henry Schultz" with Savannah in 1909 and 1910. I had thought the card was Albert until the Baseball-Reference site came out.

If you know what he looks like it may be helpful to see if the guy on the card looks like Albert C. Schulz or if it is depicting the other guy. I would also like to know who is really pictured on this card.

I can do and it' a long shot is post this pic of the 1915 BUF FL team, but don't know if Mr Schulz is in this photo... Thought he would be in the T200 for the NY NL's but he is on their roster for 1912 and 1913 but not on the T200, so maybe he wasn't with them when the T200 pic was taken?

Well, from all the records that I can find find Albert C. Schulz batted right but threw left handed. Assuming the picture on the T210 isn't reversed or anything like that this guy is a righty--so it probably isn't Al. There is still the possiblility the picture is reversed and then they drew in "Savannah" on his Sweater, but if I were a betting man it is looking like it is "Henry Schultz".

Hey Guys,

Hope this does not cloud the situation, but was fresh on my mind as I just sold this card this past week. Is it possible he played for the Class D Maysville Rivermen (Kentucky)? This may just be another dude with the same last name... If it helps, then great !

Jeremy, the guy in T210-6 w/ Maysville's name was John Schultz, and just to add a bit more confusion there is also an Edward Schultze that is featured on a T210-1 for Macon as well.
