He also has a Bowman card.
Perhaps you would be interested in a project that I've worked on, Washington is included. I will be revising it with a few additions when I make the time to do so.
From Negro League To Major League
In 2012 after the Metropolitan Museum of Art presented their "Breaking the Color Barrier in Major League Baseball" exhibit, I decided to put together a mirror collection of the cards displayed in the exhibit.
The cards that they selected were from the Jefferson R. Burdick collection that is housed in the museum.
They are of "some of the earliest and most illustrious players who moved from the Negro leagues into the Majors".
ENJOY!
