Huge thanks for any help!

If it helps anyone, Ray was included in the 1960-61 National Bank of Washington "Tacoma Giants" set. Unfortunately, you rarely see cards from that set and, when you do, they tend to be the stars (Marichal, Gaylord Perry, etc.). Never seen the Daviault card, myself. But maybe someone has access to the set or, at least photos thereof.
I think my favorite story about Ray is that he was quite proud, upon retiring and returning to Canada, that he'd spent all those years playing ball in the states and hadn't learned a word of English.
