Missing Player Walter Coleman 1895 St. Louis Brown Stockings
Woodcut of Walter Coleman who pitched 1 game for the St. Louis Brown Stockings in 1895.
The woodcut appeared in the April 18, 1897 St. Joseph (MO) Sunday Herald. He was with the team from April to May 1897. He is mistakenly called John Coleman in the woodcut, but the biographical description in the article matches Walter Coleman's. I also have documentation of his release by St. Joseph in May 1897 from a local paper that frequently featured Coleman's exploits.
