Finally had the opportunity to visit Green Diamond Gallery outside of Cincinnati Ohio. I recommend it highly to anyone that collects HOF Autographs. I attached a few pictures to give you an idea of what is inside there. Yes, there may have been a few secretary signatures innocently mixed in, but everything appeared real for the most part. My only regret is that the owner prefers to cut most of his signature for framing purposes.
Many of the signatures, such as the Rusie Kenel Club, I recognize from past auctions/Stinson offerings.

Amazing place. I visit the Green Diamond about twice a year and I find new things every time I go. Jim Stinson said a lot of the items came from him. If you love autographs, this is a must see.

Display. Amazing collection of autographs and memorabilia. Ever bat and uniform is authentic. Gehrig, Robinson jerseys. MVP and Cy young awards. Bob Crotty started collecting very young and had the means to accumulate many amazing baseball items over the years. Decided to start a foundation to raise funds for baseball fields and equipment across the country. The gallery sells memberships and brings multiple players/executives to speak to the members. Opens the gallery twice yearly for a small fee as a fundraiser and a way to let the public see these items. Some say he has the best autograph collection/gallery next to Cooperstown.
