Here's another photo of Ad Gumbert with the Pirates. This is from the 1895 Spalding Baseball Guide.

Pictured in the April 24, 1887 edition of the Cincinnati Commercial Gazette. His major league career spanned only 2 games but he played many years in the minors.

Nice find! Spent a lot of time on Shea, so glad to have him in the fold.

cinemaodyssey · 02-05-2022, 02:54 PM

Thanks! I was really looking for Larry McKeon but stumbled onto Shea. I can't believe McKeon has been this hard to find...

This is the first time I've seen Moses Fleetwood Walker pictured in a uniform that shows the name "Toledo" on it. His major league team was the Toledo Blue Stockings of the American Association.

The image is from the 1985 Decathlon Ultimate Baseball Card Set. The artwork was done by Gerry Dvorak, who contributed artwork to the 1953 Topps set, including the Mantle card.

And thank you, cinemaodyssey, for the Mike Shea find.

The photo in the Facepack of Lee DeMontreville is actually of his brother Gene with the 1899 Baltimore Orioles.

Excellent catch. I'll address this in the next update.

Awesome investigation and clarification, mates!!

Chickazoola · 02-11-2022, 05:47 PM

Inspired by CinemaOdyssey, I checked the Cincinnati Commercial Tribune for Larry McKeon and was able to finally find a woodcut of him. He is one of my most wanted guys, a 20 game winner for the 1885 Cincinnati Red Stockings, whose career was derailed by poor personal habits. He was pictured in the April 11, 1886 edition.

Chickazoola · 02-11-2022, 05:48 PM

aargh, would help if I posted the image....

cinemaodyssey · 02-11-2022, 05:51 PM

Amazing find! I spent at least a week looking for him.
