Howdy folks,

First off, my name is John. My dad, Bob, died last year. We loved collecting baseball stuff, and I'm happy to be able to keep his account going.

I wonder if someone can help to identify a signature on an MVP ball. Dad made a list of the signatures but left off a whole panel. The signature in question is at the top of the attached picture, just above Boog Powell. I've looked through the list of MVP recipients and can't match any of the letters that I think I recognize in the signature.

Does anyone recognize it?

Thanks!
John

Amazing! You guys knocked it out in less than 10 minutes.

I was skeptical after a quick search for Garvey's signature, but there are similarities in the S, G, and Y when compared to this image from mlbshop.com (http://goo.gl/yaga03).

Thank you!
