Additional notations written in his hand appear on all other panels and include a full listing of team with which he played and the years/seasons he was a member of each. In addition, he wrote "Capt. of 1931 Boston Braves" and "Sept 10th 1931, 20 years in the Big League" (his debut had been on Sept 10, 1912).
