David KernI'm glad you received the stamps (a liitle feedback never hurts). I was unable to identify either player; I'll be interested to see if anyone comes up with anything. Unsuccessful areas were:
1. Major League Player - no record (Baseball-reference)
2. Minor League Player - no record (Minor League Player Database, goes back to 1929)
3. Coach or team personnel - there were some team trainers/doctors in the other stamps I didn't sell you but nothing turned up in old rosters, media guides, references.
4. Checklist of the set - I don't think one exists. George Burke's assistant/partner George Brace continued his photography work for years, the archives lists are available at Brace Photo - nothing turned up there either.
5. Some friend of George Burke's that he threw in for fun? - maybe so.
Good luck in the quest.
