Minor League Auto Find

[chlankf]

I came across and picked up a beautiful collection of minor league autographed photos.

Whoever put this together spent tons of time and effort. So far there are just under 1500 and I still have two of the five boxes left to put the pages in binders. All of the auto pics have a label in the page with the players name. I have sorted and put back into their former order 2002, 2004 and 2005 and have 2003 still to go. Not including '03, the teams in this collection are Carolina League and the Eastern League.

I rarely pick up much newer material outside local minors. Lots of duplicate signatures but each picture is different. Having such a good time with these. None of my family cares and I just had to share these with all of you.

Happy hunting

There are quite a few players that had a good MLB career. How long ago did he sell them and what auction? The gentleman I bought them from purchased them in a local Des Moines auction.

I did find all sorts of Wilmington Blue Rocks pocket schedules in the boxes so I thought that was the possible origination.

Is your son's name Rob? There were a few pics & auto's that didn't fit the others. Mike Flanagan photos with collector auto on one. The other two, I'm not sure who they are, photo autod with same collector and a Colts b&w auto. If this is your son, would he like these back?
