The Roy Campanella All-Star Team of 1952 featured the best black ballplayers of the Negro League and Major League. Sixteen of those players have signed this 8 x 10'' photograph, including Alex Pompez, Roy Campanella, Leon Day, Larry Doby, Monte Irvin, George Scales, George Crowe, John "Wes" Covington, Hank Thompson, Harry Simpson, Lenny Pearson, Walter Hardy, Pat Scantlebury, Lefty Gaines, Verdell Mathis, Joe Black and Lonnie Hooker. Signatures range from "3/4" to "7" with most "5/6". The key signature of Pompez is a solid "5". Even though some of the signatures are light, they are easy to read against the white background. The photo has some professional restoration and is mounted to board for preservation. Originates from the collection of Hall of Famer Leon Day.
