Does anyone recognize this autograph?
 
I've had this for a number of years. Can't remember where I got it, though. Always believed it to be a baseball auto. To me, the last name looks like Tripp. I found a J. P. Tripp and a Solly Trip from the turn of the century. Other players named Tripp are modern. Anyone have a guess? Thanks.

Looks like 'Fr Silsby Tripp' to me (Fr is either Frank or Father)

Looks like Gripp to me, which interestingly was one of my grandmother's maiden name. It's Swedish.

How about this: Frank Silsby TRIPP was born on 12 Sep 1857 in Cincinnati, OH.

I saw that but the info doesn't lead anywhere. Would have to find someone who knows Ohio baseball. Local star? Team official? Maybe I may ask about the name on the vintage memorabilia forum.

I thank everyone for their help.
