I posted this one a while back in another thread... a Mick sig my dad got in person in Enid, OK back in 1950 when Mickey's visiting Joplin Miners were in town. My dad was definitely tracking the local hero by that point and sought him out specifically.

Here's a few more that I wonder about---
A signed Gwynn rookie that's dated. It was an eBay pick up and I'm not sure it was signed that day? but thought it was cool regardless.
1983 Fleer Tony Gwynn signed.jpg
Also curious what folks/the experts here may think about the Snider, Aaron? Neither were sold as being early sigs, but they just looked older to me.

And finally this Williams and Koufax, though I realize it's possibly just the style pens that make me curious.
