Below is a link to some really interesting "no hitter" facts: Here are some T206'ers who are in the elite group: Breitenstein (as Barry pointed out); Cy Young (1st game); Deacon Phillippe; Vic Willis; Mathewson (x2); Hooks Wiltse; Rube Marquard; Jimmy Lavender (1st game). Forgive me if I missed any T206'ers or included any who weren't in T206...

Also, as far as New Orleans players commanding somewhat of a premium- Barry's point re: Joe Jackson, IMO, is accurate. Also- given the weather in that region, many collections, as I understand it, have unfortunately been lost.
