I have a baseball my wife picked up for me along with the multiple HOF player autographed ball I mentioned in another thread. This ball has a bunch of autographs from the Cincinnati Reds from the 1960's. None of the players that I can recognize came up during the 70's so I'm sure it was all done back in the late 60's. Some of the autographs are clear and easy to read and they are pretty recognizable players. But some are fairly obscure. I remember a lot about the Reds from that time period but it wasn't until the 70's that I became a serious fan.
I'd like some help with the autographs I don't recognize. I have photos of the entire ball that I will list below the names of the players I know on the ball. Here's the list I have so far and the photo that shows their autograph. I also have an indicator of where the other autographs are.

Here are the links to the photos. There are too many to post here and I posted them pretty big so the details show up. If anyone wants I can retake a photo.
