Default Garage Sale Autographs: Good or Not?
I got a call from my mother-in-law last week while she was at a garage sale. She said that there was some sports stuff and wanted to know if I wanted anything. She said that there were lots of autographed baseballs. I'm not an autograph collector and I knew that they could certainly be fakes. However, she read a few names and said that they were $5 a ball. I said buy them all. I will need to get them authenticated, but I think they look good. They're all on league balls from the 90's.

The only one I can't identify is John? Also, the last ball (2 photos) appears to be a game ball from Willie Wilson becoming the first player to have 700 ab in a season.


I'd appreciate feedback as this isn't my area of expertise. Thanks!

You can replace that question mark with a period. Definitely Quisenberry.

Thank you everyone for the feedback. Good call on Johnny Damon!

I felt good about the baseballs, but wasn't sure about the photo. Your thoughts helped me affirm those thoughts and know how to proceed.

Whats on the ball that references 700 ABs and KC?

Is this anyway a Willie Wilson game used ball?

He had over 700ABs in 1980.
