Eddie Murphy (born 1918) Baseball Cards or Memorabilia
My grandfather's older brother played minor league and independent baseball in the 40s and 50s and I am always on the lookout for cards, original photos, autos or any other memorabilia related to his playing days.
As far as I know there are only two known cards for this Eddie. He was born in 1918 in Roxbury Massachusetts and spent time in the Pacific Coast League, Western International League from 1946-56. He was a staple center fielder for the Indians for most of his career and also owned a bar in the Hillyard Neighborhood of Spokane Washington named Eddie Murphy's Tavern in the mid to late 50's.
Cards:
1948 Smith's - Oakland Oaks #24 Eddie Murphy (Pacific Coast League)
1949 Sunbeam Bread - Stockton Ports # Eddie Murphy (California League)
1946 Victoria Athletics - WIL
