I still have my dad's scrapbook from 1940, with all his newspaper clippings of the New York Giants. And in the scrapbook is a sheet of paper with Mel Ott's signature in ink. He waited outside the Polo Grounds and got it in person. He then took the sheet home a drew a picture of Ott in his classic batting pose. It's quite beautiful.
