First - I made no reference to a Musial autograph, I made reference to his home run in the game.

Second - I'm not an autograph guy, so maybe I should have been more specific that "for me" the selling point is the Musial scored homer, or maybe even the 13th career appearance for Warren Spahn.

Musial did not hit a home run on July 20, he went 0-3. The scorecard is scored for game 1 of the July 21 DH with his third inning home run (the 45th of his career) being one of his 5 hits day.

Wasn't arguing, just adding to the conversation about Mort Cooper being a pretty rare autograph.
You're totally right about the date. I looked up that date and it showed the 2nd game of the doubleheader and I saw it was the game before on the scorecard. Didn't realize it was the first of a double header. Interesting point about Warren Spahn as well.
