Not a great photo, but Babe Bagby was shown in the July 15, 1936 issue of The Calgary Albertan performing his "rocking chair" stunt, where he would catch while sitting in a rocking chair. According to a 1939 issue of The Leader, his real first name was "Moten." He's possibly the Moten A. Bagby who died in 1979, but I can't find anything to tie that Morten to baseball at the moment.

Harry Cummings was profiled in great detail by Gary Ashwill a few years ago.

Michael Houlemard was a pitcher with the 1954 Birmingham Barons. I had previously posted a photo of him from his playing days, but this one is of better quality. The previous posting was on the following webpage:

This photo comes from his obituary. He died on April 1, 2022.

This photo shows him in a Cleveland Bears uniform, and comes from the Macon (GA) Telegraph of Sept. 28, 1939.

A clearer photo of Mint Jones in a Jacksonville Red Caps uniform. This is from a 1934 issue of Colored Baseball and Sports Monthly magazine.
