I have copied down most of them here. Some are very interesting (like Ray Schalk, Willie Kamm and Eppa Rixey  ) |
I don't own any but have been looking through scans online recently reading the backs because some are interesting. Yet some, like McGraw, are very anticlimatic in the midst of the rest.
