Net54 T206 observation

Some things to know about Frank Shaughnessy (of T206 fame) other than the Dracula look...

Shaughnessy had a very long career as a baseball player, manager, and then became president of the International League for nearly 30 years, that is what (in my opinion) makes him a more desirable card to have than any other SL card. Not to mention he was captain of the 1904 Notre Dame football team. He is also a member of the Canadian Football HOF (was also head coach of Clemson a few years after John Heisman), and is in the Canadian baseball HOF. In all seriousness Frank Shaughnessy is one of the most important "forgotten" sports figures of the early 20th century.

Here is a trivia question about Shag: (that I don't have all the answers to)
How many other T206ers are pictured on a card put out by Topps before 1970 (other than 1951 Connie Mack All-Stars)?

What Topps set (defined as anything produced by Topps) is Shag featured in?

i,for one, much prefer Shag's 'hippie' hair to the scary flat top Coach's look he had in his older days.
Granted, i've still got a bit of the old 60s hippie in me.
But a little less than Barry Sloate.

I must say this board continues to be the best in the known universe,IMHO,
even with warts and all.

best,

Wow, didn't know Shag coached at my alma mater, that's pretty cool. Go Tigers!
