Default I did just obtain Ryan signed items . . .

cbcbcb,

I did just obtain the Ryan signed business card and TLS via eBay. As a collector of vintage Detroit Tigers autographs, the content of the letter was relevant. I'd be curious to know what led to the gifting of the pen from the Tigers organization to Jack Ryan. Perhaps Tigers scout Wish Egan was involved in some capacity. And Jack Ryan had some prior history with Detroit baseball, since he played with the ball team in 1900 (prior to Detroit formally joining the American League in 1901).

Actually, the price for the pair was around $34 (not $15 as I mistakenly quoted earlier), but regardless, I am extremely pleased with the purchase.
