Buck Barker of the 20th Century
I think certain aspects of vintage bb card research require at least access to quantities (collections, influx of cards as seen by dealers, etc) of cards being researched. That being said, I think the computer age has made it more possible to do cyber-research.
From the past I would like to mention Buck Barker, who did countless hours of research into the identity of players seen in such sets as Zeenuts--I believe Buck had a pretty impressive collection by the time he passed away, a good chunk of which he used as note-pads while researching at the archives of the Sporting News
