Default John Frill backstory

As I dipped my toe back into the T206 waters this summer, I visited an old dealer I have worked with for many years. He has his own eBay store. I didn’t have my check list with me, but the number of Starr’s Shipke’s Unglaub’s were all there. Cards I knew I had. I stumbled upon John Frill. Now he was a name I was unfamiliar with. I see he was pitched playing for the Highlanders. I had never heard of him, so I did a quick baseball reference search and found his very modest career.

He was 39 years old when he passed away in 1918. Sort of sad. I really want to know more about him. A EPDG of his was up for bid last night. I almost bid on it. Now I sort of wish I did, but I digress.

Does anyone here know about John Frill? Any place I could look?

Talk soon...
