Claude Ritchey, known as "Little All Right" (October 5, 1873 – November 8, 1951). He was born and died in Emlenton, Pennsylvania. He weighed 167 pounds. He was a switch-hitter who threw right-handed.

His full professional career, including the minor leagues, ran from 1895 through 1912. His card presence in this catalog spans the E254 Colgan's Chips chewing-gum issue produced from 1909 through 1912, a set notable for its broad coverage of major and minor league players; the T204 Ramly tobacco issue of 1909, distributed by the Mentor Cigarette Company and recognizable by its ornate gold-bordered frames; and the T206 White Border tobacco issue, distributed by the American Tobacco Company between 1909 and 1911.
