I noticed that a lot of the random bios I looked at for the T206 thread, showed players in the 5'5" to 5'6" range. Keeler was 5'4", Maranville 5'5", Hack Wilson 5'6"... I know the New York Giants got their name because many of the players on the team were over 6', which was very tall back then. I went for a check-up the other day, and the nurse said I was 5'9 1/2". In high school, I was 5'11".

Played some semi pro ball in the ‘70’s. I was 5’10” 195. I was average then, even for pros. Went to see a professional game in the mid ‘80’s. I was blown away by the average size. These guys were 6’2” 235+. Granted it was the steroids era but still. Their shoulders were 6’ across.
