Wild Bill Donovan

Wild Bill Donovan (1876 – 1923) survives in the cardboard record of the deadball era. His big-league service came with the Detroit Tigers of the American League. He was a switch-hitter and threw right-handed. Among collectors, he turns up across the E90-1 American Caramel, E92 Croft's Cocoa, E92 Dockman & Sons Gum, and E92 Nadja Caramels issues, giving him a multi-set vintage footprint and broader optionality for buyers seeking an example of his cardboard. He was 47 years of age at the time of his death.
