Dr. Steen autograph pick ups!

[T206Collector]

Does anybody have any information on who Doc Steen was, or where he lived, or anything? I'm just curious since I agree that this collection is so amazing, and now I happen to own a handful of them. Would like more info!

I can't figure out how to scan these with the size limits but I won the Babe Adams, George Gibson and Bobby Byrne. My focus is around the 1909 Pirates. Someone fought me on the Tommy Leach and I had to let it go which stunk but it went way higher than I thought it would.

Amen to that. I was thinking $300 or so would take it home.

For Paul and anyone else interested in some history on Dr. Steen. Google is a many splendored thing...

Dr. Steen was a dentist in Scottsbluff Nebraska. Please note this Hunt auction item circa 2008 (would be quite the companion piece to the Frank Baker M101-2 from this auction)...

Nice work tom!

Cool early Bio on him. I wonder when he died?

[btcarfagno]

He was born in Wahoo Nebraska three years after Sam Crawford. I wonder if they knew one another.

Some of my letters...I have all of them in my safe deposit box so can't scan any of the others...I just found these old photos in a N54 search.
