I'm guessing many of this type and quality of card are tucked away in private collections, only surfacing periodically. I see the more common signed 30s and older cards on ebay here and there. I don't bother to look at auction houses, as I don't have that kind of money to spend on them. Sure would be nice to know that more of these were signed though before many of the players passed away. I absolutely love the vintage signed cards. Have nothing of this magnitude to boast about, but try to grab any that I see at a budget collectors price. I have a few 33-34 Goudeys, Diamond Stars, Batter Ups and most commonly the 39-41 Play Balls. No T cards in this collection unfortunately.
Enjoyed the pictures, especially the Maranville, Cuyler, Wilson, etc., all brief Dodgers, which is my autograph passion.
