Very cool to experience! I picked up a T206 PSA 4 of him today! I am just starting to collect him and that is a very neat experience you had!

Made me very happy. I was actually not going to stop for pics but I remembered it would be neat for the board and the Newbie collecting the Wheat cards. I like to travel with you guys on your trips to the National, Cooperstown, and so on through pics. So I figured why not bring another trip to the board. Not the biggest town at about 460 population but he is larger than life there.
Here is my only Wheat |

Thanks for the photos, Andrew. You learn something new every day and I am probably the last guy to know that Zack had a brother, Mack Wheat, who played parts of seven seasons in the Bigs. Mack was born in Polo, older brother Zack was born a dozen miles up the road in Hamilton. Mack's sole appearance on a baseball card, if I am not mistaken (and I have been known to be mistaken) would be on a 1922 Zeenut when he was on the PCL Los Angeles roster. (Am I right on this one, Zeenutters??) Anybody got one to post?

David, here ya go (it's a fairly tough one to find)...
-Rhett Edited to add: I also thought it was interesting that also included in the '22 Zeenuts was George Kelly's brother Ren Kelly (also a fairly tough Zee)

Am I wrong or was Zack Wheat's first name actually Zachary and not Zachariah as they have on the memorial you pictured?
I could swear I always thought his name was Zachary and that his parents had a Presidential theme going through their sons names Zachary (Zachary Taylor) and McKinley (William McKinley). -Rhett Edited to add: After the OC write up maybe people will actually realize that we are not the same person (it happens all the time). Also Rhys is the older one by a year and 3 mo. (so we aren't twins or anything like that)
