Autograph Identification help?
I posted on the main board page about an autograph collection of baseball player from the 30's that I'm trying to help the owner with and cant identify the following autographs, any help would be appreciated. Autographs are from the mid-thirties. Thank you for any help.

The third one is Lyn Lary. Played back in Ruth's days

Above Red Kress is Buck Newsom , better known as Bobo Newsom later in his career.

1st one is Tex Carleton. Played on the champion 1934 gashouse gang Cardinals.

By the way, that bottom grouping of sigs in picture 1 of Joe Marty, Tex Carleton, Lonny Frey, Phil Cavarretta and Frank Demaree all played together on the Chicago Cubs in 1937 (Frey went on to the Reds in 38) so I would bet that 1937 was when that part was signed.

Thanks for the help guys! Mike, thank you for the dating information for the Cubs group. Anyone have any ideas on the last one? Floyd ....

Looked through a lot of Floyds, but the only ones we saw that seem possible matches for what seems to be written were
Floyd Mulkey and Floyd Hundley, both from the 1930s but both of whom had only brief careers in the low minors. The diagonal sig alone on a page does suggest it might not "belong" with the major league players neatly organized on the other pages...

My first thought on the last one was Cy Williams, maybe a very rushed, sloppy one?

Tex Carleton, Buck (Bobo) Newsome, Red Kress and Lyn Lary are all correct!

If indeed 1937, that would be Red Sox Bobby Doerr's rookie season signature ("Bob Doerr").
