Dick Egan

Richard Joseph Egan (June 23, 1884 - July 7, 1947). He was a native of Portland, Oregon, listed in playing days at 5'11", 162 lbs. He batted right-handed and threw right-handed. His major-league career ran from 1908 through 1916, primarily with the Cincinnati Reds of the National League. His broader professional ledger — including minor-league seasons — extends from 1903 through 1918. On the cardboard side, his vintage presence is anchored to the T206 White Border issue, which is where collectors of the period most commonly encounter him. He died on July 7, 1947 in Oakland, California. He is interred at Holy Cross Catholic Cemetery in St. Helena, California.
