Thank God for modern medicine. I got tuberculosis at the ripe old age of 16...glad I didn't end up in a sanitarium.
Here's another HOF Rube...I hate this card (although I "have to" own it for my earliest HOF card collection)...this 1908 Indianapolis Indians postcard shows him as "Charles", even though his given name was Richard William Marquard. Go figure:

"Rube" was actually an untreatable strain of bacteria that flourished before the discovery of penicillin. That is why it was prevalent in the prewar period only particularly near ballparks.
