Hey Sean. Only Groucho could come up with something so clever! That's a lifetime keeper, and will certainly make for one terrific conversation piece! Congrats! My best, Jimmy |

Thanks Jimmy! What makes it even better is I got a COA from Steve Stoliar, Groucho's former assistant and the end all be all Groucho autograph authenticator PLUS I can frame it upsidedown and it will appear to be an unpersonalised Groucho signed photo which is also pretty rare.

Although I have never considered myself an autograph collector, here are a few I have accumulated thru the years:
(1) Anybody remember this guy from the late '40's--early '50's? (2) 1955 Giants Yearbook (3) My cousin who pitched in 14 games for the '34 A's (4) Mrs JR

Some really nice pieces, Fred! I'd be a bit concerned about that Johnson ball, though. (Just my opinion.)
|
#62
|
||||
|
||||
David- could it be due to the ball being enhanced (which I assume means traced over)?

Yeah--that could certainly be it. (It does mean traced over.)
|
#64
|
||||
|
||||
With a thick/dark tracing over like that, is there really any way to determine that what's underneath is authentic? Isn't it just guesswork, when the tracing over completely masks the original?
|
#65
|
||||
|
||||
An "enhanced"autograph is virtually worthless, so it really doesn't matter much.

Took me over a decade (starting in '81) to fill this 1939 first day cover.
I wanted players that played then, although Waite Hoyt retired in '38. Most of the sigs I got in person at various shows in the East Coast like Ted Williams in '88 at Atlantic City when he obliged by using a green pen like Ty Cobb would use. I gave this to my son in the fall after he had a son, so this could be handed down yet again. |
#67
|

|

Really, really nice item, Jay.
I'm as green as the William's signature with envy.

Here is another ball I bought w/ the WoJo ball, which is also "enhanced", which is the term used by PSA/DNA to describe a sig which has been traced over.
It was determined that the sigs were all originally authentic but the integrity was compromised by enhancement, to use PSA/DNA words. I knew they were when I bought them. The FDR ball & the Senators/Hodges ball (both untouched) came from the same source, a former CIA Presidential Head Bodyguard for FDR & several other Presidents. David-- Was very sorry to hear that your 1927 ball has been deemed a forgery as I had long admired it whenever you posted. Here is my 1930 Senators ball (8 starters plus 1 defensive replacement)--w/ 2 Yankee's--a total of 6 HOF'ers--that was signed early in the 1930 season when the Yankees visited Washington & President Hoover (w/ above mentioned Bodyguard attended). I left the Mgr Johnson sig out of this one. Where & when it was enhanced is unknown.

There was no such thing as the CIA when FDR was President. And the CIA has nothing to do with presidential protection, that is totally done by the Secret Service. There is no such thing as a CIA Presidential Head Bodyguard.

Richard ---
You are correct---I mis-spoke from memory & meant to say Secret Service. The Grandfather of the woman I bought the balls from was employed by the Federal Govt for most of his life and was a high-up member of the SS who worked under at least 7 Presidents from Coolidge thru LBJ (late 20's thru late '60's). As she put it, he was assigned as one of the head "body guards" (her words)who accompanied Presidents to various public appearances. She has a picture (of several she showed me) of her Grandfather right behind FDR in the stands as he thew out the 1st ball at a Washington Senators opener. I saw several other letters of appreciation, commendation, etc of his years of service in Washington for the SS. There is no doubt in my mind that the 4 baseballs were acquired as a direct result of being w/ several Presidents at season openers or other games while accompanying them.

Here are a couple more I dug up.
Let's add a little pop culture. I got this from Johnny in the mid 80's. He used to be a pretty big collector. He started with cards and then moved to autographs later. He was very mild mannered and a really nice guy. Missed opportunity.

I met him in around 81. At the time, he was putting together 1957 Topps set. For some reason, I have a memory of him buying about 30-40 commons(unslabbed and ungraded) from my Dad and I, at one of the Armory shows or it could've been the Armenian church. He was a regular at all the NY metropolitan areas shows back then. Shortly after that he got into autographed photos. He became good friends with Heschle and, especially his son, Craig Morgan along with Neal Rosenwasser. Neal, Craig , and I got invited by Johnny to go with him to the Stone Pony to see them play on a Sat night, after he came to the show we were all at. The next day we were all back at the show, very tired. We didn't drink, but we did get back really late. Wow. It's cool how one photo brings back so many memories. Best, Mark

I was never a fan of punk rock, I am a big fan of classic rock.
But I obviously knew who he was and he was always a real nice guy when he came to my table.

Here are a couple of my favorites. On the Cobb, the altered is because of the severe trimming and paper pasted on the back.

My favorite autographed item - shared before but a good time to post scans again...
This ball was signed at the 1955 HOF induction - I got it from the Red Sox scout who had it signed in person. He had three of these, nearly identical - wish I got all three at the time! (Also signed on another panel are Ted Lyons and Lefty Grove.) Last edited by scooter729; 04-03-2012 at 09:28 AM. |

Most probably haven't heard of Ernest Quigley but, since he spent a majority of his life in Kansas I knew of him. I got lucky and snagged this a few years back. Quigley umpired basketball as well as baseball games. He's enshrined in the Basketball Hall of Fame and umpired in the 1919 World Series.

Yeah thats the way she signs though. At first i thought she had just given me some chicken scratch and i was kinda disappointed but then seen she was signing this way for everyone. Even if you look at some of her autos on the internet, most are like this or similar. I kinda wonder if she ever has had a "normal signature"? |
