Yankees autograph collection (common players) incl. '27 Yankees
 
1 Attachment(s)
Hi there,

I had made a purchase of a collection a while back, and one of the late throw-ins was a group of roughly 100 or so postcards (of the one seen), all obtained by a collector through the mail in the 1970s or 80s (since some come with original envelopes or sigs were dated). They all seem to be retired Yankees players, from what appears to be players from the '20s through the '50s. Many of these come with additional letters of correspondence and notes from the players.

There are no big stars in the group (I'm still trying to figure out who all of them are!), but I did find 4 members of the '27 Yankees so far (as seen in the pic - Koenig, Pipgras, Morehart, Dugan). (I totally forgot about this purchase for a long time, and just found this lot again as I'm packing to move, and was quite happy about it!)

I'm not sure what to do with these - should I try and re-sell as a group, or might there be some good break-up value? Other players range from Spud Chandler to Hank Bauer to Spec Shea to some folks that I looked up to realize they only had 2-game careers in the 1920s!

Any advice or suggestions you may have would be most appreciated!

Thanks,
Scott
