Vintage 1930s Baseball Autos: Who are These Folks (may be Lefty Grove, Jimmie Fox)?

[meatloaf]

I came across these things the other day; it looked very intriguing to me, but I don't know much about this potential era and these players. From what I know, all of these are raw; no 3rd party authentication whatsoever. There are two sheets of autos and a auto ball. One sheet is two sided; the other is a single sided.

It appears the 2nd page of the 1st sheet has an auto of "Lefty Grove." I assume this is MLB HOFer Lefty Glove, correct? The second sheet has an auto of "Jimme Fox." I assume this is MLB HOFer Jimme Foxx, right? Because I saw these names and from the "date" on the first sheet, I assume these are baseball player autos from the 1930s, correct? I am trying to connect if they are all from a single team, from an all-star game roster, etc.? I looked up the world series for 1930, it was done before 13 Oct, the date on the 1st page of sheet 1. There is a reference to American League All Stars" from the sheet 2. Not sure if that has any significance. Additionally, I have little experience in valuing multi-auto balls or sheets from the vintage era. Is this worth anything? If so, what kind value at an auction assuming authentic? Does the kid's "ownership" statement on sheet 2 decrease the value? Are these worth submitting to PSA/DNA for a Q.O.? Finally, is the Teddy Ballgame auto on the ball likely legit? Thanks! Meatloaf

The sheets are authentic and very nice indeed! No idea about the ball.

Nice pickup. I see a lot of players from the 1920s/30s and some well known names. They are from various teams and if you enter the names in a search it should become more clear. The Williams is authentic and the names on the sheets appear to be genuine too.

TY for the opinions so far. It is ironic that I can make out most of the names on the sheets with little effort. However, if this from the 2000s, you would not be able to read any damn one of them, i.e. Jeter, etc.

So did you end up buying them? The first sheet went for $170 and the other sold for $500 and the williams went for $170. Prices are before buyers premium and shipping costs.

Those sheets are nice! At least one is from Earle Mack's 1934 AL barnstorming team that traveled across the northern US on the way to the west coast where a portion of the team went on to tour Japan, China and the Philippines.

[Real or fake?]

Ted Williams baseball is good IMO.
