I'm trying to find photos of my Great Uncle Ted Waring, he played for the PCL in the early 1900's, for the Angels and there's not a lot out there and was wondering if anybody had any?

I know of his Obak card, which I've tried to find. Last time I found one for sale my cousin Doug bought it out from under me :(

It looks like he only played in the PCL for one year.

You've probably already seen this, but here's an Obak scan to enjoy until the PCL experts here arrive with more info (not my card):

Looks like Dave's had a couple, but they have been sold.

This is on eBay now from when he played with Guthrie in 1909.

This one is listed on eBay from 1910 PCL. They have him listed as "Warning", but I think it is actually Waring.

Good luck! Rick

Yep, that's the one I see every once in a while. Have yet to secure one, but will eventually.
