Does anyone have a Randy Bobb exemplar they can share within the next 24hours? Got a chance to pick one up but cannot find an authenticated example. Thanks guys.

No love for a 69 Cub?

Found two examples online. One supposedly with a JSA auction LOA the other with a supposed COA from Richard Albersheim.

Neither look the same. :D

Good luck.

How about sharing a link for those.

Sorry about that.

All I could get is the Google cached image. First one is the one that supposedly came with an auction LOA from JSA.

Thanks for the links. Yeah, I spent pretty much all day looking and also found 3 additional ones...2 that are similar to your first one, and 1 that is similar to your second one. Bobb had a fairly short period to sign (he died at 34 from injuries in a car accident) and his major league career was basically a cup of coffee in the bigs between 68 and 69 at a very young age 20-21, so I suppose this could be an example of his signing style maturing, but it seems like a short period to develop that much. Although I would consider myself a completionist when it comes to team projects, I think I may just have to skip the Randy Bobb autograph for the 69 Cubs unless some additional info comes to light.

I got to meet John Harriston the other day. Real nice guy. I didn't have anything for him to sign but I hear he's been difficult for some Cubs collectors to find. I gave him my business card and talked about having him participate in some golf tournaments.

Hairston was one of 3 players that were "whereabouts unknown" at one time, but I believe that's changed in recent years.

I just joined this message board within the past week. While I just noticed this post, coincidentally I have a Randy Bobb signed album page on eBay right now. So, there is a good examplar you can look at on eBay right now for comparison.

Thanks, and welcome to the board. Great example on a team page and matches up nicely with a couple of the other's I've now seen.
