Letter To Readers
Our current catalog has a fine 2-day auction with all manner of interesting autographs and memorabilia from all of
the major sports. This is our affordable auction, with almost all lots carrying a retail value of $500 or less and very
low minimum bids. We will also be exhibiting at the National Convention in Chicago; we will have an extensive
display of items for sale and we will be very actively seeking out high quality items for consignment and purchase
for our future auctions. Prices have never been better, now is a great time to consider our auctions.
This auction ends on Wednesday August 5 and Thursday August 6. Day one is all about baseball autographs.
We begin with a very substantial offering of signed baseball cards. A white-hot category in recent years, we have
vintage HOF cards going back to the 1940s, scarce cards for set collectors and many terrific partial sets from the
1990s to the present among other items.
Collectors of vintage baseball autographs should have a great time going through this auction, we have over
150 different lots of signed 8x10 photos and several hundred smaller size photos and postcards, with note to major
HOFers and also many rarities. There are also many terrific manageable group lots, among the best values you
will find in today’s market.

August 5-6 Auction: Signed Cards
Autographed Cards
1 1934 Batter Up 8 Jim Bottomley 8......................50
Missing the top, this is signed in flowing fountain pen.
Bottomley died in 1959, and is an extremely tough autograph to find on any type of single signed item, much less a
vintage card. JSA LOA.

4 1936 R314
Al Simmons
5....................100
Light but legible signature, this is an extremely difficult
card to find autographed. The card itself has some general wear and is VG overall but with markedly better eye
appeal. Underrated HOFer Al Simmons died in 1956, and
hardly ever appears on a signed card. JSA LOA.
5 1933 - 1938 Red Sox Signed Card
Set/3x5 Collection (35 pcs)
9.5.................100
Interesting lot, our consignor had each card signed and
mounted the card to a 3x5, where the card was not signed
the 3x5 on the reverse has an autograph. There are 19
signed cards and 17 signed 3x5s. Condition is strong.
There are several tough autographs here, including Johnny Welch (cut, D’1940 at age 33, rare), Cronin, Pipgras, R.

9 1946 Remar Bread Casey Stengel 8....................120
Not a rare card but a fun card, when was the last time you
saw a signed example? The card itself is a pleasing VG
with a nice image of Casey seated in uniform. Signed in
vintage blue ballpoint; the back shows evidence of scrapbook removal. JSA LOA.
101947-66 Exhibit
Nellie Fox
9......................75
Very popular piece, this is one of the toughest HOFers to
find autographed from this classic set. The card is clean,
this is signed neatly in blue ballpoint by the bottom border.
Solid combination of card and signature. D’75. JSA LOA.
11
1948 HOF Exhibit Fred Clarke 9.5.................125
Very good signed Exhibit card, early Pirates HOFer Fred
Clarke died in 1960. This is a pleasing VG card with a
superb blue fountain pen signature. A very popular set
among autographed card collectors, there are probably not
very many of these floating around! JSA LOA.
121948 HOF Exhibit Mickey Cochrane 8...............100
Desirable piece, one of the tougher HOFers in this fun
postcard size set. Card has tape on the the corners and
some general wear, with a pleasing blue ballpoint ink signature near the bottom border. D’62. JSA LOA.
131948 HOF Exhibit Tris Speaker 7....................150
Another very desirable signed card, it is always special to
find a HOFer of this caliber on any kind of card. Speaker
signed this in blue sharpie, a pleasing signature about 1/3
of the way up the card. The card itself is clean. Speaker
died in 1959, terrific signed period Exhibit card. JSA LOA.

18
1950Callahan Clark Griffith 9....................125
Bright card has some back damage but otherwise displays
well. Signed on the front by Griffith in blue ink, a very
solid autograph. This HOF player and future owner died
in 1955, so he did not have a huge window to sign these.
JSA LOA.

23
1952 Mothers Cookies 4 Chuck Connors RC
4.5.................110
How is this for a cool and rare signed card? The key to this
classic PCL set, tough card even without a signature. The
card itself has a substantial crease but still presents well,
the autograph is light but certainly legible. Slabbed Authentic by PSA/DNA and truly a fairly unique signed card.

Very desirable signed card, this pleasing mid-grade card

the top margin, so Virdon’s autograph is a little clearer.
Murtaugh, the popular 1960 and 1971 Pirates manager,
died in 1976 and is so often secretarial, making authentic
examples especially prized by advanced signed card collectors. JSA LOA.

much rarer and better as it includes their third (and vital)
HOF teammate. JSA LOA.

Light but certainly legible signature is the kind of thing
that will look much better held in hand rather than on the
internet or in a printed catalog. Clean b/w image of this
1927 Yankee and future coach, a HOFer of course, posed

Both sides of a clean 3x5 are filled with seventeen solid
blue ink signatures from various members of the 1952
Boston Braves. Notations on the reverse indicate this may
have come from Braves manager Charlie Grimm. Notable
piece as this has a very scarce Rookie signature of Eddie
Mathews. Other better signatures include Spahn, Grimm,
Sid Gordon, Torgeson, Crowe and Keely. This is also special as this was the final Boston Braves team. JSA LOA.
771 1963 Kansas City Athletics Yearbook

(15/100). The programs have been signed in pencil and
ink by mainly lesser players; the better autographs are
Joe Torre, Lou Boudreau, Norm Sherry, Johnny Pesky,
Elroy Face and Jimmy Piersall. The programs themselves
are fairly clean and mostly scored, they might well be
worth more than the autographs. The programs have 2 -10
signatures each. Either way, a somewhat unusual lot that
someone should enjoy going through. JSA LOA.

Fun piece, this clean 8x10 Hall of Fame sheet is signed by

9..........................150
Scarce, this is one of the absolute keys to a set. Hafey died
in 1973, after being inducted into the HOF in 1971. Signed
at the upper left corner in neat blue ink, this is admittedly
not perfect, but nonetheless it is one of the very best
condition Hafey’s one is likely to find. JSA LOA.
