Austin McHenry and Bill Delancey were Cardinal rising stars in the 1920's and 30's. McHenry died at age 26 from a brain tumor, and Delancey got TB at age 23, dying at age 35.

Branch Rickey said Delancey was one of the 3 greatest catchers of all time.

I have both of these cards, but not scanned, pulled these off of EBAY.
