Large collection of 107 various items signed by one or more individuals who played with the New York Yankees during the 1950s. This is our consignor's childhood collection, with all the signatures having been obtained by him either in person at signing shows in the 1970s/early 1980s or by correspondence with the player by mail. As such, several of the pieces are personalized "To Marc" or one of his family members. The signatures, scripted in a variety of inks, average 8/10. Very Good to Excellent condition overall. Because some of the signatures were obtained by mail, one most allow for the possibility of a few secretarial examples in the collection. In our listing, the number of items for each player, if more than one, is noted in parentheses.
