One of my favorite old time players was dodgers HOFer Harold “Pee Wee” Reese. I got to meet him in person - along with Johnny Bench at a charity golf event on Long Island over two (maybe close to three) decades ago.
I brought a few low dollar value cards and a ball for him to sign and a reprint of the 1953 Bowman set ... one of my all time favorite cardboard images. To this day I regret not having him sign the original card. But back in the day it was too valuable to ruin
