That is a nice Earl Hamilton, his signature is much tougher than his death date as you know!

Thanks Rhys!
This signed Earl Hamilton snapper was a 2017 pickup and I'm very happy to have not missed it at the time.

Scott - Amazing - Nap Rucker could pull out the same look in time even for a snapshot!! I also love the Newark Walter Johnson.

Adam - I know Luke Easter's grandson (he's my insurance agent!) and I look out for Easter stuff for him. If you are interested in selling, let me know and I'll hook you two up.

What I've seen in this thread is amazing!

I only have one 'snapshot' to add...it's much smaller than what has already been shown, but it is my cousin Whitlow, so it's cool to me.

That's Crosley Field.

I guess it might be nice to get an Eisenhower cut to frame with this photo and an Ott autograph.

Good timing Scott, autographs can be found at a bargain price currently.

Here is a snapshot of Brooklyn Brown Dodger's Gibbie Meeks from Branch Rickey's short-lived negro United States Baseball League.
