Walker has no card, but is pictured ina number of team photos. Walker is also no longer recognized as the first Black preofessional ball player. Recent discoveries have shown that this distiction belong to another player (name slips my mind at present). According to record, this player was able to pass as White and no one knew he was Black, so technically, Walker was the first "known" Black player to play major league baseball. |
