The "Card Match Game" thread over on the Pre-War side looked fun, so let's do it here with autographs! Here are the criteria:

Match the last signature seen with any of the following:

-One of his teammates (even minor league is acceptable)
-Somebody who debuted in the same season
-Players from the same hometown (no "general vicinity", though!)
-A shared nickname

I'll get it started, appropriately enough, with Chad Kimsey:

Percy Jones was Pat Collins' teammate on his last team, the 1929 Braves. Jones won the lottery, then promptly jumped (or fell) out of a window, paralyzing him for the last 50 years of his life. He was unable to sign following the accident, so his autograph is quite a rarity.

Then that means Ira was a team-mate of Paul.

Waner played 11 games for Brooklyn in 1941, Reese's sophomore season, ergo they were teammates. (Sorry that it is just barely pre-war but I'm thin on autographs).

And considering the historic times we are now living in, this is certainly an appropriate time to post this autograph.

...let's go back to a Durocher connection to keep the original chain going. I'll take your suggestion to keep this post-war and find a pic of one of Leo's rookie season teammates:

Fred--Didn't I just see that ball for sale somewhere? Too bad it was traced over.

OK, since you mentioned Goslin, I'll find one of his teammates. Here is a fellow who played with rookie Goslin in 1921:

Sorry, Phil and I were posting at the same time! Let me find a Hatter teammate:

Tedd Gullic and I in West Plains, MO, sometime in the 1990's. Tedd played with Hatter in Milwaukee in 1935 and '36 on one of the greatest minor league teams of all time.

I sold that ball thru Lelands in June 2005 auction---Don't know who bought it or if it has been auctioned since then.

Here are 2 other panels w/ more Wash players & Walter (Mgr) by himself on a 3rd panel:

Babe is on the sweet spot & Lou is on the 5th panel. 6 HOFers in all out of 12 sigs.

All sigs were deemed authentic but unfortunately enhanced!

Does anyone have a major or minor league teammate of Gullic that they wish to add?

Bengough played with Kimsey on the '32 Browns, thereby completing this circle of Chad!

Absolutely gorgeous Gehrig, David.

And how about two of Gehrig's 1927 team mates?

Here is one of Myles Thomas' tougher 1929 Yankee teammates. Robertson died in 1982, but had been missing for around 50 years. He was living in a town in Nevada, and
apparently not even his family knew where he was.

Robertson is quite common on 1929 team balls. In fact, I don't recall ever seeing a '29 Yankees ball that wasn't signed by him.

Team balls, yes, but flat items are a different story altogether. His last big league season was 1930, right around the infancy of GPC and 3X5 collecting. I have never seen Robertson on either. There was really no way for fans to write him later on, but I'm sure he would have been a willing signer if somebody had tracked him down.

. . . keeping with that thought, and connection to Gene Robertson.

Unfortunately, not an item I personally own. But cool, none the less.
