Larry Fritsch produced a number of niche sets, one of which was "One Year Winners"--cards that depicted players whose major league careers were brief. There were (IIRC) three separate series, each with their own design, and they depict such baseball legends as Dan Thomas (The Sundown Kid), Joe Moock, and Eddie Gaedel. For many of the players, it would be their only cardboard appearance. Here's the OYW card of Ray Daviault.
