Kawika, thanks very much for the quick reply with all of the tips and resources I really appreciate it! I'm amazed at the info you came up with on my grandad! I've been kind of stumbling around not knowing exactly where to look. You are absolutely correct about the other Bonner's being out there. I think there was one in the Carolina league and another in the Southern League/association.
I'm going to follow the links you provided and see what I can find.
I will find the dates for the upcoming Seattle/Shoreline card show and try and make it.
Side note: When I was a kid in the late 50's one of the card companies, don't recall which one, published cards called "The Oldtimers" or something similar. The card was brown and the picture of the player was within an oval picture frame. Anyway, my buddy managed to get one of my grandfathers cards. He would not trade or sell it for anything. I bought all of those cards I could and never got one! If I had known better, I was probably 8 or 9, I could have written the company and probably got a box of them! Anyway you being a collector I thought you might get a kick out of the story.
Thanks again for the help I appreciate it.
Terry
