Posted By: <b>Micah Gulledge</b><p>Does anyone know if Ed Delahanty ever spelled his last name &quot;Delehanty&quot; with an &quot;e&quot; instead of the first &quot;a&quot; in his last name? In the current Robert Edward auction lot #913 is an Ed Delahanty handwritten and signed letter where it is signed &quot;Delehanty&quot;. I have never seen his signature this way. It includes a letter from PSA. <br><br>I am aware of Roger Maris first coming into the majors as &quot;Maras&quot; and changing the spelling of his name to &quot;Maris&quot;. Is this a similar case? Any information would be greatly appreciated. Below is a link to the auction.
