As far as autographs go Ive been lucky in nabbing some tough 1919 Sox guys (Wilkinson, Ragan, Gleason) but have hit the availability wall now. I have 19 (including a Mrs Joe Jackson and not including a Risberg Im having authenticated) different 1919 Sox. Plus 5 possible Phantom players/spring training members (Bruno Haas, Ed Tabor, Bill Stewart, Roy Hansen, Fred Henry)
Been beating the bushes trying to shake loose the toughies but no luck yet (I dont think I have ever in my life even seen an example of Win Noyes by the way)!
Good luck with the collecting, I have many doubles of the easier guys if needed. |
Wow Thomas, 20 (with Risberg) plus spring training members is quite an accomplishment. I have 15 (including Attell) but I don't think I'll get over 20...but you never know. Hey, how about posing a pic of your Kid Gleason? That's one I'd really like to get someday.
