perhaps a team issue
 
Looks like a "C" on his cap, which given your location, may make sense. According to Baseballreference.com, Gudat would have played one year for Columbus, in 1931 (and no other cities beginning with "C"):

Strangely, the site lists him as playing in 102 games, with 30 as a pitcher and the remainder at no defined position. Given he hit .343, they may have made better use of him off the mound (4-4, 4.31 ERA), but where?

EDITED TO ADD: he is listed as an OF for LA in the PCL

Its a team issue from the 1932 Chicago Cubs

good job Mark
 
Well there you have it. Here I thought the guy was a career busher and turns out he made the Big Leagues. You go Marvin!!! At least I got the team issue part right :)

I think they are in the Krause SCD but Burdick didn't give them an ACC number. I was the under bidder on that card. Nice pick up. Also, they come on 2 completely different kinds of stock....The stock difference can't be seen here on these 2 cards but one is thin and one is thick.
