Here's my contribution. Germany was quite the character. Here's his SABR bio: http://sabr.org/bioproj/person/2594238c

My two T206's...........

was Germany Schaefer. Obvious that I bought what I could afford, but somehow the card hooked me, and I now own a near complete set. Schaefer was the fun-loving and creative ballplayer we don't hear enough about.

Hi Ted - Here's one that would fit well with your nice collection of Schaefer backs. I would have posted this sooner, but I was out of town for several weeks.

Does anyone have a scan handy of Schaefer's t213-3?

Trying to see what team he's labeled with

Great card Val....thanks for posting it.

Will I see you at the Oaks Show....April 27-29th ?

If so, bring this Schaefer card with you.

Best regards ole buddy.

Joeadcock & Ted - Thanks for the kind words!

Ted - I'm scheduled to have some medical procedures in April, so I doubt that I will make it to the Oaks Show this time around. See you at the Baltimore National, but probably not sooner.

Jack - Here's the T213/3 of "Herman Schaefer" with no team designation. Sorry for the lousy pics - my scanner is on the fritz, so I had to use a camera.

Best to all,
Val

Jack - Here's a pic of the cover of the Senators Checklist Book. It is 8.5" x 11", softbound, and 230 pages. There are lots of pictures of cards along with interesting tidbits re the Senators history at the bottoms of most of the pages. Tom Holster, the author, is (or was?) a DC area collector - I believe he produced this book mostly as a "labor of love," as I don't believe he sold very many copies of it. A few years ago, I think someone told me that Holster had left the hobby. It's a great pub for anyone who collects Wash. Senators cards!
