Feel like drooling, signed pre-war cards!
 

Let's see some signed pre-war cards!

It's not a beauty, but I'll take it!

What's not a beauty? Did you mean to post a photo of something?

Here's a beauty I don't share all that often...

Took this in a trade last year. Only signed card in my collection. I've always liked this Diamond Stars card of Gehringer.

signature
 

I've always loved Gehringer's signature...so neat and collective...thanks for sharing, Kevin.

I have to agree, I love his signature, here's another and one of the only autos in my collection-

Kevin - love that Gehringer auto! If you ever want to sell it, please let me know. I'm working on an autographed Diamond Stars set and that Gehringer is a beauty!

Is my scan not showing up?

1941 Play Ball partial signed set
 

Correct.

HOF auto
 

206collector....how many tobacco card autos do you have? I know that these autos are your primary collection and it has to be quite impressive.

Thanks,

Mike

Man is that great! Drooling! :)

thanks :) If you like that check this out. A complete 1933 Goudey cubs signed set missing only Pat Malone. Might be the oldest signed teamset in existence? If anyone has a Malone to sell me pleaselet me know :)

Man, that Charlie Root is killer.

Here are mine. Three T206's and a Doyle/Smokey Joe signed Loughlin from the 70s. I know not pre-war, but thought people would like to see it.

Mike,

Thanks for the kudos! I have 39 different signed T206s, and a little over a dozen dupes. And I am always on the lookout for more!! :D

Paul,

Did you ever snag that signed T206 Rucker I auctioned off a few years ago? I once had 10 different signed T206 cards and that was one of them.

T206 Rucker
 

Yes, I did, in a trade with the late, great Betty Dragon. I picked up a really nice signed T201 Rucker and sent it her way.

Wow, when did she pass away? I believe the original owner told me he had it signed in Montana of all places.

James

Here are some of mine (The Cobb is a trimmed down M113 I believe, has a full LOA from JSA)

WOW!!!!! :D Viewing that, I've got to quote Wayne and Garth "I'm not worthy, I'm not worthy!" Best of luck tracking dow Malone!

Betty's Rucker
 

Here's Betty's Rucker...

<a href="https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/57kshxikPOts4ozRow9IpTiJm_Z5QsNdec5_I7WHZRE?feat=e mbedwebsite"><img src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-agHqAGisSUE/SqcQ9l-7M3I/AAAAAAAAHS4/p5aYz8EwVrQ/s800/Rucker%2520Portrait%2520Auto.jpg" height="647" width="800" /></a>

I believe she passed away a little over a year ago, from a quick onset abdominal cancer of some sort. Her family was, naturally, devastated. Her son said that the signed Snodgrass she got in the same auction as the Rucker was one of her favorite cards, as she had it visible on her desk when she passed.

Fortunately I was able to track down another signed T201 Rucker in Phil Marks' collection, and picked it up in a trade:

<a href="https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/1wdvNNA2rblRoKbsg_7ysHY2VLgy2RG_a1rPg51wK6M?feat=e mbedwebsite"><img src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-SA0ibsWldd0/S7FFPL4wqaI/AAAAAAAAHxs/hSZKys463Y8/s800/Rucker%2520T201%2520Auto%2520SGC%252060.jpg" height="800" width="450" /></a>

I really love my signed T201 collection. In addition to the Rucker and Leifield I've posted above, I also have these -- including a double-signed, double-folder!

haha thanks! Ive seen two before so i am sure one will show up sooner or later :)

Great Averill. I have seen a few signed vintage Averill on eBay and one of these days I need to pick one up

Very nice !!
 

I don't have anything signed (except an old softball that was my grandfathers at one time, and although it says "Lefty" I don't think it's any "famous" Lefty).......but I wanted to say this is an excellent thread- all of you have BEAUTIFUL signed cards/collections and I appreciate the chance to view all of these amazing cards- thanks.

Sincerely, Clayton

signed old cards...
 

Some of my favorites

Wow Glen, wow.

1934 Goudey
 

Well. Here are a few of mine. I am working on the set. Haven't picked up any new ones in almost a year.
Some of these I've posted before, but I've included a few that haven't been for some variety
I love these threads.

Also... Glen, I know you're holding out! Show us some more. Great Stuff!

Wish I had the funds to chase some of the more rare items and signatures...

I don't normally collect autographed cards, but I couldn't pass this one up a couple of years ago.

Still can't see the scans...

This is one of my favorite sub-collections

I think I remember seeing that Snodgrass piece years ago...That's weird they aren't showing, they are showing in my browser...

When I "quote" your text, I can see that there is something pasted there; but, the photos do not show. I tried with both Firefox and IExplorer.

Ok, this should finally do it lol. This is a small sampling of the hundred or so HOF Auto Rookies.

Really nice cards. Glad we can finally see 'em. Your Marquard reminds me of a Wheat I once owned...

<a href="https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/pY372ikPOQ4I43AyiXWFkYRT3dysq2WPtX5u9gk-z0Y?feat=embedwebsite"><img src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-GyzNILVVBUs/SqBnHtAFCyI/AAAAAAAAHQg/-rz9IvcQ-UQ/s800/T206%2520Wheat%2520%2528Green%2520Ink%2529.jpg" height="441" width="267" /></a>

I was able to trade this one because I already had this one (thanks again James!)...

<a href="https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/Dfp_VbnYzfre18AQ9yY9xziJm_Z5QsNdec5_I7WHZRE?feat=e mbedwebsite"><img src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-zCEQKm486Jw/Rxk7T3tTkFI/AAAAAAAAB_E/YFK5tV4DFjA/s800/Wheat%2520Auto%2520SGC%2520A.JPG" height="643" width="800" /></a>

And now I also have this one:

<a href="https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/N3p_7e6yBOP4PTNtSjQqDTiJm_Z5QsNdec5_I7WHZRE?feat=e mbedwebsite"><img src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-hyWgCvwrVkk/TlGEyBCy0EI/AAAAAAAAJXY/xGdpZZvb51g/s800/Wheat_SGC_40.jpg" height="800" width="488" /></a>

FWIW -- I would also trade James' old dual-signed Wheat for some meaningful upgrades or additions to my signed T206 collection.

Third-times the charm, I hneed to dig up some of my scans of my others.

Love those Wheat's, one is from the Morey collection right? I would love to pick one up, or even get a new Marquard, auto is so faint.

Top and bottom ones come from the Morey collection -- the top one he held on to through the Mastro sale; the bottom one he sold through Mastro.

His collection was quite amazing, if you're planning on dumping a dupe of marquard or wheat, I'm highly interested

I'm currently in buy mode, but I have let two Marquards go over the past several months. If I am ever back in sell mode, I'll keep you posted. I am unlikely to be selling either of my Wheats in a private sale at any time.

Ok sounds good, would love to upgrade my Marquard. Any new pick-ups?

Not too much. My latest signed pick-ups are these four cards over the past few months....

Sorry about the weird cropping on a few of these.
