Mail Day! Any Joe Wood experts out there?
A month or two ago, I picked up this little Johnny Pesky card that it appeared that he filled out in his own hand. Later, in another thread somewhere around here, I found out it is called a Heilbroner card, and he really did fill it out.
So, last week, I happened to see another one. Then looking closely, I realized it was the previous one to mine! And it has a post mark on it from 1940, so I think it is a very early Pesky signature(?).
Anyway, even though I am a Yankees fan, I have always liked Pesky, and have a game worn jersey and bat that he used, so I thought these were pretty cool additions.
He must have been adding them or something, because when I refreshed, new ones appeared. Then I saw the Smoky Joe Wood. He is on my bucket list, so I couldn't resist. I am no expert, but I think maybe that is his signature?
I figure someone here can tell me.
