A lot of them had short careers/moved on like you said. Not sure of the effect of the depression - it could probably be argued some played a little longer due to lack of better alternatives - I have no idea on that one.
But Nevers? Such a huge name, I wouldn't have guessed that Grange's career was essentially twice as long..
