Giving it one more try here to get some more T206 runs posted. Let's see what you have.
"Turkey Mike" Donlin is one of my favorite T206 subjects. His life story is part of the reason why I like him. This run is a work in progress, but at least
I have 4 of the toughest cards for starters (CYCLE 460, red HINDU, PIEDMONT Factory #42 and SWEET CAP Factory #30 scrap). The T206 part of this
run will be complete with 15 different T-backs. And so far, I have 10 different T206 backs.
In 1905, John McGraw made Donlin the Captain of the New York Giants....and Mike enjoyed his best season, batting a career-high .356, with 216 Hits
and Mike led the NL with 124 Runs. Mike's career BA = .333, if he had taken his BB career more seriously.... "
he would have been a contender" …..for
the Hall of Fame.
Hey Guys.... you can catch "Turkey Mike" on the TCM Channel when they are featuring the old Silent Movies. Donlin appeared in 65 movies from 1914
to 1933. Including, the movie classic "The General", and the 1927 very popular BB movie...."Slide Kelly Slide".
