Value of Signed Letters on Baseball Stationary
I have a few different BEAUTIFUL letters, all dated 1937 or 1938, written on team stationary, in response to a request by a Can-Am team to play a preseason/exhibition game against them. The letters are as follows:
Cardinals stationary signed by Branch Rickey Yankees stationary signed by Ed Barrow Red Sox stationary signed by Billy Evans Dodgers stationary signed by L.S. MacPhail Any ideas of value?

Barry - I got them years ago... not quite sure when. I picked them up because the content relates to the Gloversville Glovers, a Can-Am team from Gloversville, NY, which was the town next to where I went to school.

The content of the letters really showcases the personalities of the men who signed them. Rickey, as always, sensing a new business opportunity; MacPhail being fiery as ever; the cherubic Evans, who actually apologizes for not answering sooner due to his mother's passing, and Barrow, classically dismissive in a true Yankee holier-than-thou "Don't call us, we'll call you" fashion. Whatever happens, keep these items together. Very nice.
