That's Jeff Bagwell, he's not as bad as some.

+1 not nearly as bad. His rookie sigs were very legible

I knew who it was and to be honest I'd never seen his signature before.

Here's one of mine, not exactly one from the 80's but comparing them to each other and it's laughable, my favorite player or not. It's a shame.

The top one if my bat, the bottom is a random google image.

Did you get that Piazza IP? It is almost too neat to be believed. I got him at a paid signing a few years ago, and his sit down signature was no where close to that.

I was wondering the same thing. I have an early Piazza sig, where you can at least read the M and P, but nothing close to seeing all the letters.

I recall getting Piazza at a paid signing in Anaheim across from Disneyland in his rookie season. BTW, the cost was a whopping $5. At that time I noted that he had one of the worst IP signatures that I had ever seen.

I had Piazza also date the ball, which would have been pretty cool if I had kept it looking back in retrospect. Somebody offered to trade me a Roberto Alomar SS ball for it, and I made the swap. Oh well...

Speaking of Piazza, here's the in-person autograph I got during the WBC in 2006. Isn't it a beautiful one...lol
