Can anyone help me?

I have recently found out that I had a great, great uncle who pitched for the White Stockings and Tigers in 1901 and 1903 respectfully. Is there an online website that I can go to to find out if he has a baseball card out there?

Your help would be priceless, and GREATLY appreciated. . . .

His name was John "Buckshot" Skopec, and actually had the dubious distinction of giving up the first AL homerun in history. . .

THANK YOU!!!

according to my information he does not appear on any vintage card issues, he may appear in some team photos, such as sporting life premiums or sporting life team photos. i have a 1904 coming and i'll see if he i pictured on either team.

Nothing in my database either. Mr Lemke will know for sure since he's got a better database than mine.
