Muriel and Otto...Who knew?

[Archive]

Posted By: Patrick McMenemy

I found a great website today which seems to have a lot of information on full names of many of the PCL players.

I did find a few errors, however, the information, for the most part, looks pretty accurate.

I was able to update some of my virtual library PCL spreadsheets, and I added a few first names to the images on my website.

It's really nice to finally have the players' full names....Otto Auer...Daniel Howley...Muriel Grindle.

I still have a few players that I need first names for:

T212-3 Burns (Tacoma) and T212-3 Sheehan (Vernon.)

Can any of our experts give me these first names?

Here's the link to these cards on my website:

Thanks,

Muriel? No wonder the guy wore a mask while playing.

Who knew? Evidently, I didn't know..nor did the people who created the checklist that I referenced.

I feel better that his name isn't Muriel...per the expect on the PCL....the correct name for the player in the 1911 T212 Obak set is William (Bill) "Pinkie" Grindle.

Also Otto Auer was better known as "Dutch."

Sorry for passing on incorrect info.
