That's quite a project! Good luck, and I'm sure it's a fun and interesting journey.

I have been acquiring signed cards for about 40 years, back before it was considered an enhancement to the cards.

I picked these up in 1977:




I got this card back then too but had it signed at a show in the late 1980s:



Cost me twelve bucks to get it signed.

This one I picked up in the early 1990s:



Got this card in the 1970s and had it signed at a show in the late 1980s:



I think Feller was six bucks.

Got this one signed on March 4, 1995:



I can't believe it's been 22 years since I met Hammering Hank.

Got these signed at a charity event some years ago:





A recent acquisition, and a very, very tough type card:




These are all signed at local card shows in the early 1990s:

Great stuff Adam! I'll bet even the Ballparks Promotion ticket with Aaron's image on it would sell for a pretty penny today.
Love the images. Thanks for sharing.

I thought the ticket was so nice that it was a keeper, and a great COA for the autograph.

No one's said a word about Julie Newmar...buncha card nerds. That's why the hookers never come back to the convention hotels after the first night. One came up to me in Chicago and said "I'll do anything you want for $200." I said "Find me a T206 Cobb portrait with a green background." Never heard back from her.

I always loved this Dixie Howell, say what you want about Personalizations,

Adam,

I love the Rosen card. Such a classic pose and one of my favorites!

Those legs on Julie don't ever stop do they! 😎 She was a tall glass of cold water....
