Help With Houk Bat 1950-1960 H&B K55

[vegas]

Need a little help identifying player "Dick Houk"? This is a block letter proffesional model bat model "K55" - 34" that dates from 1950 to 1960. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

One's first thought would be "The Major" Ralph Houk, however his given name was "Ralph George Houk"....There was a Minor League player from 1952 named "Robert Logan Houk".....Does anyone know if Ralph Houk ever used the nickname Dick (keep your jokes to yourself...lol)?

Could it be a different player? The Houk bats I have seen only had his last name.

Thanks for looking into this. I guess this will remain a mystery for now. Thanks

Sorry, too far back for me.
