Just curious...
What does everyone think: attempt to have Grammas sign it, or leave it alone?

If that is in fact his uniform shirt, I would vote for getting it signed in the neck. If you left it as is, it's still a great shirt. I don't believe there is a right or wrong answer, FWIW...

I personally would leave it. It would be one thing had it been signed back in 1950, so the signature would also be vintage, but I think adding a signature over 60 years after it was worn would be defacing a great jersey. It wasn't worn with a signature on it and it looks awesome just the way it is.

That said, if you do decide to have it signed, you could always have him sign the inside of the jersey, below the collar, so it doesn't ruin the front of the jersey.

Maybe the best way to decide is to look at other signed vintage flannel. Do you like how it looks?

These are my most recent original photo (Type 1?) pick-ups: Huggins 1928, Gray 1944, 1953 Reese, Mantle 1959, Kluszewski 1948. I don’t normally show the backs but thought that they could serve as a stamping reference for other photo collectors.

Love the Chicks flannel, but please don't have Grammas sign it. As a bat collector, I can stomach a signature on a bat -- maybe because it's a hard surface and can in some cases be removed if so desired.
But I believe a signature on a jersey defaces it.

How about this -- have Grammas sign a photo of the jersey, or better yet, get a photo of him holding up the jersey, and have him sign that.

Just my two cents.

I really like Greg's idea about having a photo of Grammas holding up the jersey and having him sign the photo. Sounds like a definite winner to me!

Nice photos 71buc, especially like the Huggins and Klu.

Like the Reach guides Mark. I didn't realize they came hard bound.

Chris brings up my preference. I'll have a player sign on the placket inside the back of the neck.

With the double-layering, there's no danger that the signature would bleed through to be seen on the back of the jersey
If a visible sig on the outside is bothersome for you (it is for me), then it won't show when displayed on a mannequin
If you like to see the sig, you could still see it when hung

However, in this case you'd have to do it off to one side because of the MacGregor tag. This might not be a great choice, but it's still an option if you prefer to have the signature on the item itself.

I'd like to add that the pick-ups so far are outstanding. That Chicks jersey is fantastic.

Default New stuff

1935 and 1937 Reach Guides. Both are Gehrig Covers.
These are the hardbound editions. I'm not sure how rare these are, but the condition of both is spectacular. Usually, I don't spend a lot for these types of guides, as they usually are available readily, but the exceptional condition really drew me to them.

Also had a big autograph pick up that I posted in the auto section.

Not vintage at all, but I won an online MiLB auction for two of my local Class A minor league team's game used hats from July 4th. I got them today and after the game, I had the players (one is hitting .336 and the other .306 and fielding like a madman) sign them under the bill. I also asked that they mark them as game used but I hate it when it says "GU 2012" on the top of the bill. So I asked they mark and sign it on the bottom.
