After Harry Heilmann's career ended he became a Tigers announcer from 1934-1950.
He died at age 56 in 1951, and was inducted the following year to Cooperstown.
A shame he didn't live to see that honor, he had a .342 career average & should have been inducted sooner.

Picked up this neat piece on the B/S/T board and had it matted & framed.
It sits above my bar.
