I have no idea if they are old or not but I checked google last night for companies using the name Rajah for that era and came up with a cigar company, coffee, chocolate and sparkplugs just through a quick search so I wouldn't assume the name is connected to Hornsby so quickly. Found four options without digging deep so it was a rather common term/slogan during that era.

Another with 13 players who were with the Pittsburgh Pirates during the regular season, but never played a game. There's also one about 27 baseball families, as well as a day-by-day look at the worst team in Pittsburgh Pirates history.
