"Wirt Gammon was a sports writer from Chattanooga and a huge hobby pioneer who I believe specialized in vintage baseball issues. Searching his name on the web and here and he was writing articles about the hobby back in the 1940's through work in the 1970's with Sports Collectors Digest, and it has been documented that at one point he worked a deal for 3 Wagner and 3 Plank T206. I imagine a good chunk of us collectors today have cards that passed through his hands."

Here is Wirt Gammon on the January 31, 1976 issue of SCD. I kept this issue because I had those same but full length curtains in my bedroom as a young card collector in the 1960s.

Good luck with your collection, Ed!
