Signature collection featuring baseball executives, umpires, and announcers, plus three others. A total of 44 different signatures are represented here, including eight Hall of Famers. The signatures, scripted in a variety of inks, average 8/10 and the items are in Excellent condition overall. Many of the signatures are on index cards, but photos, cuts, and other miscellaneous items are also featured (all the items are flats measuring 8x10" or less). This grouping is part of a much larger autograph collection, the entirety of which is being offered in this auction. The collection was amassed over several decades mainly during the 1960s through the 1990s, with the autographs housed in albums. The albums are more like scrapbooks in that each signature is paired with a biography sheet of the player, making for a unique presentation.
