This is the poster I picked up.
1967 topps poster Signed by Aaron not my oldest Aaron. That would be a ball that he signed Henry during spring training 1954. Based on research I did ball was signed in south carolina during series of games between the Braves and Red sox. They had played many exhibition games during the 52 years they both played in Boston. But in 1953 the travel made that difficult so in 54 the agreed to meet in SC just before seasons opening for a few games. Must not have worked financially because last time they did it. My first National leauge game was Mets Braves in 1968.
