Are there any cards for Nick Maras - Late 50's minor league

A friend of mine is friends with Nick Maras. Nick is a former minor league pitcher who never made it to the pros. Is anyone aware of any minor league regional sets that he may be in?

Here is his stat line from the minors stat line

He played for these teams all affiliated with the Pirates

1957 Salem Rebels
1958 Grand Forks Chiefs
1959 San Angelo/Roswell Pirates
1959 Idaho Falls Russets
1960 Dubuque Packers
1960 Burlington Bees

All of these teams were below the single A level so I am guessing there are no cards but I gotta give it a try.

    I'm unable to find any listings for that name in Beckett, TCDB, eBay, or the POP report.

    I wonder if he is any relation to Roger Maris, who went by the spelling of Maras when he was toiling in the minors?

    He is, they are cousins. Pretty cool in my opinion. No luck on any cards. I did find a pin on Ebay though of one of the teams.
  • Is he related to Mick Mars too?

    I think it is Tommy Lee not Mick Mars. :-)

    that's cool that he was related to the Raj....Your best bet may be a program or team picture from those clubs.

    good luck

  • I looked in the old Beckett alphabetical list and did not see him listed there at all.
