From the back of the card: “Is elongated young man, towering 6 feet, 1 1/2 inches and weighing 170 pounds.”

Brother of Slick Coffman, who had a short career in the late 1930s as a pitcher, Dick Coffman played for 15 seasons for the Washington Senators (twice), the St. Louis Browns (twice), the New York Giants, the Boston Bees, and the Philadelphia Phillies. He was thoroughly mediocre, posting a career 72-95 record with a 96 ERA+ over 1460 innings. He pitched for the 1936 and 1937 New York Giants teams that lost to the New York Yankees in consecutive World Series. Coffman didn’t help his team much in those efforts, posting a 12.00 ERA in 6 World Series innings.

Incredibly, he was traded twice for the same player – within six months! On June 9, 1932, Coffman was traded by the Browns to the Senators for pitcher Carl Fischer. On December 13, 1932, the Senators traded him back to the Browns for Carl Fischer.
