I also had the pleasure of talking with Joe's son Robert many times at local New England card shows. He was wonderful to talk with. For those who knew Robert, here is the link noting his passing in 2009.

I speak to some of Dots Miller's relatives all the time, six of them are my cousins and I know a few of their cousins, who are also related to Dots. None of them met him though, he died in 1923.
I also met Joe Wood's son and talked with him at length at a show once. Nice guy, though I will point out, he isn't in the t206 set

Please check out my books on baseball history. They include the bio of star second baseman Dots Miller. A book featuring 20 Moonlight Graham players who got into just one game. 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.

Chief Bender's Grandson came to a small DFW card show back in the late 90's. Just stopped in on a whim while going to or from work(had his ID badge on). He looked just like him, same as Hank resembles Walter.

Rube Marquard wished me happy birthday back in 1980. It was in the form of a note through the mail. He passed away just a few weeks later.

Several of my older family members used to go to Mordecai Brown's gas station in Terre Haute.

I had the pleasure of talking to and selling cards to the relatives of Al Shaw, Bob Groom, and Fred Tenney.
That's as close as I came. Last edited by lharri3600; 02-03-2013 at 09:37 AM. |
