Default Please help identifying signatures, and year.

After posting a thread/question about getting some signatures slabbed or encapsulated for future preservation, it was recommended by another member that I post a few pics for identification of signatures. This was my grandfathers autograph book, from when he was a kid, and after cleaning out my grandmothers house it was rediscovered and given to me. So I am able to identify a few names, because I’m not a complete noob, but not real familiar with this era of baseball, so just looking for opinions/info on rest of signatures and educated guess on year. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The page on the left:

John Haley (in the Yankees' farm system 1934-35 / 1937-41 / 1946
Norman McCaskill (Yankees' farm system)
Buddy Rosar 1939-1942
Paul Schreiber (Yankees' farm system)
Joe DiMaggio 1936-42 / 1946-51
Bump Hadley 1936-40
George Selkirk 1934-42
Arndt Jorgens 1929-39
Charlie Keller 1939-43 / 1945-49 / 1952

On the right:

Joe McCarthy 1931-46 (manager)
Lou Gehrig 1923-39
Lefty Gomez 1930-42
Jake Powell 1936-40
Bump Hadley 1936-40
Tommy Henrich 1937-42 / 1946-50

So, the year can be pinpointed to 1939.

The "Paul Schreiber" listed above, played for Brooklyn in 1922-23, and then for the Yankees in 1945. From 1924-31, he was in the minor leagues, and there is no record on baseball-reference.com, for him having played from 1932-44.

He is in the Yankees' 1939 and 1940 team photos though, so he was on the team.

Congrats on the autos! What a cool gift. I guess I would recommend encapsulation now. Stolen from another thread, a member's daughter spilled grape juice on one of his nice T206 cards. Don't want that happening with a Gehrig signature.

Paul Schreiber was a batting practice pitcher for the Yankees in the 1930s, then a bp pitcher/coach in the 1940s - thus, his inclusion on this sheet. He was officially a coach in 1945, and came back to the active ranks to pitch 2 games for the Yankees - 22 years after his last Major League appearance with the 1923 Dodgers. A shortage of players during WWII led to those appearances.

He was also a Boston Red Sox coach 1947-1958, which led to his appearance on a 1954 Topps card, all by himself. I wish they still did that with long-time coaches; i.e. Leo Mazzone, long-time Braves pitching coach, never appeared in a Major League card set.

To answer your original post question you can submit online and it gives you a single and multisiged item price.

You list the primary (or most valuable) Dimaggio and Gehrig respectively to get the price but they authenticate all of them.

Here is a screenshot of the results of Gehrig with 6 total sigs for encapsulation ($350) and a link to the page I'm referring too.

Awesome pieces!

Not to distract from the thread, but I had to comment when I saw that price list from PSA. I know of no one who would try to get Adeline Gehrig's signature 'opinionated'. She has little or no value. Competed in the Olympics, but did not medal. At best it is a $5 signature. I would opinionate her for free as she is in my Olympic autograph database of 7000+ signatures. Those pinheads also have her first name wrong!!!!!!

She is not related to Lou for those who wonder.

Why would someone pay $350 to PSA to encapsulate an item that would have to torn out of a notebook that his grandfather collected? That would be dumb.

Sounds like he is concerned about preserving the pages due to them being very thin and fragile and that the rest of the book doesn't have any particular meaning to the family.

I'm not sure I would spend $350 personally if I never planned on selling but its also not going to ever get cheaper so wouldn't blame someone for doing it.

If it was me I'd probably frame the two pages with some team photos from Spring training or early 1939 yankees.

Since he mentioned they were acquired during a well documented family trip how awesome would it be if they had some photos of the grandfather on the trip to frame with it?

I know these signatures came specifically from an autograph book. I am not a good source when it comes to Gehrig's signature. I do know that anything Gehrig related pertaining to 1939 is automatically suspect in the eyes of TPA because that is when his illness really began to take hold and began taking away his fine motor skills.
