Default Please post your Wambsganss cards

Without trying to derail Jon's E220 Wambsganss thread, I thought it might be of help to some folks if we posted Bill Wambsganss cards.

Here's an American Caramel E121, series of 80, card. That's not Bill Wambsganss in the image, it is Fritz Coumbe. Coumbe, a left handed pitcher, began in the majors with the Red Sox in 1914, and was traded to Cleveland mid-season. There, he appeared in 145 games, posting a 34-31 record with a 2.83 ERA, 1914 through 1919. He pitched for the Reds in 1920 and 1921. He pitched 10 more years in the minors, retiring after the 1931 season.

The autograph came from Jack Smalling's great collection, close to 20 years ago.
