1937 Wheaties Series 7 PCL players
 
I've managed to track down 11 of the 12 MLB players in the 1937 Wheaties Series 7. (Still looking for Pepper Martin.) However, I've never seen any of the PCL players for sale, and I can find only one image online of any of the four PCL players (Wes Schulmerich). Does anyone have an image - or better yet, a card they're willing to part with - of any of the other three players - Arnold "Jigger" Statz, Fred Muller [Mueller] or Gene Lillard? This is sorta a WTB post, but I'd really be happy just to see what the cards look like.

I am not familiar with the PCL cards but don't really collect the Wheaties series.
Good luck in the quest though.

I collect the Wheaties issues, and I've never even heard of PCL players being included. I just looked up the Wes Schulmerich and found a photo online.

Yes, that image of Schlumerich is the only one I've been able to find online. The cards are listed in the Standard Catalog of Vintage Baseball Cards, but are evidently pretty scarce. I misspelled Fred Mueller in my original post, but I can't find an image under either spelling.

Thanks so much for the link. Turns out I didn't misspell Muller after all.

Wheaties PCL
 
Those are amazing! I had no idea Wheaties made any PCL cards. And Jigger Statz to boot! Very cool! Thanks for sharing.
