Large signature collection featuring individuals who played with, coached, or managed one of the eight following expansion teams founded between the years 1961 and 1969: Los Angeles/California Angles, Washington Senators/Texas Rangers, Colt 45's/Houston Astros, New York Mets, Montreal Expos, Milwaukee Brewers, Kansas City Royals, and San Diego Padres. A total of 115 different signatures are represented here, including six different Hall of Famers. The majority of the signatures are on index cards, but also included are cuts, baseball cards (mainly modern issues or reprints), photos, magazine pages, and several miscellaneous items (all are flats measuring no more than 9x11"). The signatures, scripted in a variety of inks, average 8/10 and the items are in Excellent condition overall. Several are personalized. 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, grouped by teams. The albums are more like scrapbooks in that each signature is paired with a biography sheet of the player, making for a unique historical timeline for each team. Given the number of signed items in this lot, one must allow for the possibility of clubhouse/secretarial signatures in the collection.
