Federal League - Historic Autos line?

[Michael B]

I would ask myself: "If I could find one would I like a nice clean index card where the player signed his name, listed his position and the teams he played for or this piece of dog excrement?"

+1 Absolutely

I'd rather have a signed cancelled check then a signed file card or that monstrosity

I love autographs on checks.
Especially ones I can cash
But the Vintage checks and players that might be my next adventure in collecting

I cannot echo enough the sentiments of Michael and Scott.
That card is an abomination. Just for that alone, I would personally never collect them. Now I have no problem with people taking cuts and making cards out of them, but if you're going to do something, don't do a half ass job of it.
People can, and should, collect what pleases them, but I would prefer a nicely presented signature, on any medium. Uniformity is nice, but the rarer the autos are the less likely it is to find the combination of authenticity and uniformity.

Thanks for the replies.
And I assume "picture window" presentations are atypical/unnatural?

These are worse the the first one. The signature is too long for them to fit into their pathetic little cardboard frames. They cut it up, cut a hole in the paper and place one of the pieces they cut behind the other so that the 'whole' signature is visible. These people are fornicating rectums!!! I will give you $1 for each of them just to be able to throw them in the trash.

i collect signed checks of MLB HOF'ers. The best and most overlooked medium of them all. Each one is 1 of 1
