Let's see some Bill O'Hara cards
 
Bill O'Hara played only 2 years in the Major Leagues (1909 & 1910); nevertheless, he is well-known mainly due to his rare T206 St. Louis Cardinals variation card.

He returned to his hometown, Toronto, playing the outfield for the Maple Leafs of the International League (1910 - 1915). He batted for an average of .273 during
those 6 years with Toronto.

There aren't too many Bill O'Hara cards out there. Here's mine......and, how's about showing us your O'Hara cards.

Orion

If you are referring to the T-cards with "blue captions" issued during 1913 -1919 (T213-2, T213-3, T214, and T215-2....O'Hara was not printed in any of these sets.



The cost of this sharp-looking O'Hara card was very reasonable.....you could say the "A" is an abbreviation for affordable :)

Love the unibrow look on the C46, but is that the same guy as the Ramey and M116?

Nope. Orion and I were trading messages about this just a couple days ago. Here's a thread from over 10 years ago asking this very question:

Judson....The picture of O'Hara in Baseball-Reference.com is the same picture on O'Hara's T204 card. The picture on his C46 card appears to be some one else.

Hi Richard

I was typing away at my post during when you just posted; therefore, I missed your post.

So, we can conclude that the T204, M116, and Baseball-Reference.com depict Tom O'Hara. And, the C46 card depicts the correct image of Bill O'Hara.

Yeah, I think so. Or at least I have assumed that was the case since that thread.

That link to flickr doesn't actually show a photo for me, but maybe it works for others. I'm guessing/hoping/expecting (but most of all failing to remember if) that 1907 National League Composite shows Tom O'Hara.

Richard.

Thanks Brendan!
That's even better than the composite.
