Jimmie Foxx
 
Did Jimmie Foxx ever sign his name Jimmy Foxx. There are a few I have seen but only very few and not sure if they are legit even tho slabbed

Yes he sometimes signed his name "Jimmy".

Foxx
 
That Diamond Star is one of the reasons I posted. It has been on ebay forever and I have been tempted at times. Opinion on it?

I personally think its fine, not because of teh PSA already but it is consistant with what I have seen. When in doubt with Foxx the J is the most important thing as it changed in form but the size in comparison to the rest of the letters always stayed about the same and it is REALLY hard for a forger to get those double XX right because he signed them so fast and that is almost impossible to duplicate. Those are the keys with him, not so much the "Jimmie" v. "Jimmy" variations.

Its good but price tag is over $1,000 too high. They had it at $1600 forever, the auctioned it and didn't reach $1000

That's the only one I've seen. And I have a '38 signed Goudey of him, those are the earliest I'm aware of. I think an exhibit too
