If people are interested in writing bios of T206 players, which I fully support of course, there are plenty of un-researched players on SABR. I am pretty sure SABR would love the help!

A good example is T206 player bull Durham, who has been thoroughly researched here:

It would be unlike any Deadball era book written.
I would note that Dan McGann and Bugs Raymond have well-researched chapters in Deadball Stars of the National League, which is available on Amazon.

(You can also read similar versions of McGann and Raymond’s bios on SABR).
