one on bottom right is his, I guess, but Im used to the one u see on photos. are those in the "text" partials?

That insurance form was filled out by him in 1953--when he still took a bit of time signing.
But is his printed name an autograph?

Started off the month nicely. Picked up a 1969 Topps Curt Flood for my 1969 Topps collection. Picked up a 1926 Spalding Champions Max Carey. A 1934 Diamond Stars Al Lopez and a 1933 Goudey Fred Fitsimmons

Scott,

That framing job looks great! Great way to preserve a potential nightmare scenario. Be sure to post pics if you decide to get it done.
