Hey Ted, I know that this is off topic, but I just noticed something. And I apologize if this has been discussed elsewhere:

What team did J. Ross Helm play for?

Attachment 332979


I know that it says Columbus, but he is a Southern Leaguer, and Columbus is not in the South.

Here is a scan of some minor leaguers. The top five are from Columbus. Their uniforms feature two different "C" logos. Neither of them match the "C" on Helm's uniform.The next two played for Columbia, and their logo is totally different.

The final row is Foster and Paige, both of whom played for Charleston, and their "C" logo is an exact match for Helm's. It appears that Helm also played for Charleston, but on his card the printers erroneously wrote Columbus.

I don't know where to look up minor leaguer's stats, but I'm sure someone here does, and can confirm which team Helm played for.
