Eugene Napoleon DeMontreville-help

[Bill Stone]

I just acquired the T210 Series 8 of Eugene DeMontreville of New Orleans. Since this was the final year of his baseball career, which began in 1894, I wondered if he was depicted on any other baseball card. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hey Bill....

If you'll post a scan of the card so we can all admire it, then I'll tell you that Gene DeMontreville is in the E107 series one. And I think he might part of a team or season display on a Harper's Woodcut, but I am probably mistaken on that. And he's in the 1990 Target issue that I think tried to depict all of the Dodgers, Gene was with Brooklyn in 1900.

But I'm not telling you any of that until you post a scan.

Also, once the scan is up... what about that 1898 Baltimore team he was on? What stars!!!!

manager Ned Hanlon
catcher Wilbert Robinson
1st Dan McGann
2nd Gene DeMontreville
ss Hughie Jennings
3b John McGraw
of Willie Keeler
of Joe Kelley
of Ducky Holmes

Now that is one stellar bunch of ballplayers. 6 HOFers, and one who could be... Obviously, anyone exposed to that baseball knowledge must have managed. Post that scan and I'll mention that Gene managed in the Eastern League in 1903, and in 1912 for a Cotton States League team that was both in New Orleans (the Little Pets) and also Yazoo City (the Zoos).

Now how about a scan?

So where's that scan??

Gene's 1894 team was the Pittsburg Pirates.... Connie Mack catching, Jake Beckley at first, Jack Glasscock at short, Red Ehret (an old Louisville player) pitched. A fellow could learn from those guys.

Which DeMontreville?
Maybe while you guys are on the subject, you can answer a question for me.
Are these the same guy? Brothers? What?
Thanks,


Btw, I never got an answer as to how to post an image that only forum members can see. What am I doing wrong?

[Bill Stone]

The one on the right is the version I have. He had a brother but I think both of the T210 Series 8 are of Gene. Thanks everyone for the quick response!

If you post scans using the "manage attachments" tab located right below these message boxes, when posting a scan, then only members that are logged in can see them....
