Walter Johnson Autograph + 20 More! 1930's Cleveland! /w NBC Tom Manning!
This is an amazing piece of Cleveland Indians history, it is a book inscribed to the previous owner by his mother in 1933 "John Kuula of Ashtabula Oh.". It has 21 autographs in it from players to announcers and some very obscure NBC autographs from executives to hosts and announcers. The two best autographs in my opinion are Walter Johnson and Tom Manning. With a Walter Johnson autographed photo being valued at a solid $1500 this book demands quite a sum.
I am fortunately for collectors not very attached to this item and will let it go for what somebody is willing to pay for it. I will be taking offers. It is not authenticated yet and if you give me a serious offer I will have it authenticated on me before you make the purchase final. After the sale is final I will not make refunds, I can insure it through USPS priority for $50. Last edited by bullgill; 06-27-2014 at 11:20 PM. |

A little history of Tom Manning, Tom Manning was born in Cleveland on September 11, 1899. Manning played semi-pro baseball with the national champion Telling's team in 1917 and managed Bauer Meat to championships in 1923, 1924 and 1925. He became the first radio voice of the Cleveland Indians in 1928 and broadcast the World Series from 1929 to 1938. He broadcast the first eight All-Star Games starting in 1933 and the initial Hall of Fame induction ceremony at Cooperstown, New York in 1939. He teamed with Jimmy Dudley on Indians' radio broadcasts in 1956 and remained the "Dean of American Sportscasting" until his retirement on December 25, 1967.

I will consider $1500 (which is just retail on the walter johnson auto), but would like to get $2500. I understand that not everybody will want to pay extra for the other autos but it really it a piece of history.
