Whoa! See? I back off from the board for 2 seconds and this is the kind of thing I nearly miss.

Great, great research Dan. I have been keeping an eye on ebay to both try to upgrade the one I have and also look for one that is postally used so I could at least maybe figure out what part of the country the team was from. Looks like picking up an upgrade just became a much more formidable task. lol. How cool is that that this guy was so core to the Negro League!

I'll add more to the post on the memorabilia side as to the previous comments about the appearance of the card, etc, and probably ask more about how you figured this out.

I have seen maybe 4 or so of these on ebay in the last year or maybe less. There is a PC of the Watervliet Western Bloomer team that I see more often, but this one is maybe second. For those of you that may want to pick one up now that Dan has uncovered the identity of the guy in the back, if you look on ebay they are listed under "Cell Phones and PDA's".
