Auto ID

[bbcard1]

I went though probable 40 auto'd bats today and was able to ID and match with an auto ticket or COA all but one...Whose autograph is this?



Also ballpark values for bats with COAs / auto tickets, some with photos of signing, all pretty unquestionably good....all are autograph model bats, no gamers or anything extreme. Nice Sharpie sigs.

Mantle
Williams (UDA)
DiMaggio
Alex Rodriguez
Mize

There are several dozen more with names like Robinson (brooks and frank) Stargell, Santon, Slaughter, Mays, Aaron, Schmidt, Snider...but I figure the above are probably the bigger tickets...don't know much about autos, I'm afraid.

Many of the bats are old enough (signed in the 90s) that there were no premiums attached to autographing bats....

If it can't be read, and he's not famous enough to have a "recognizable" scrawl, why should anyone care who wrote it?
(And I use the word "wrote" quite loosely.)

Dude, if you don't have anything constructive to say, why say anything? He is just asking for help, not some belittling comment from you.

The only person I'm "belittling" is the player who "signed" the bat.
Dude.

To me, that looks like someone tried to do an Andruw Jones, but I'm not sure.

Andy LaRoche?
