One of my saddest experiences was watching the autographs fade to nothing on one panel of my '73 Cincinnati Reds ball. They weren't gone completely until around 2005 or so - a long painful process which included Bench, Anderson....
Even as a kid I was smart enough to know not to trace over them, even though I knew they were heading to oblivion.
