Signed T206 Fred Snodgrasses

[Steve D]

I recall seeing pictures of T206s signed by Ty Cobb and Walter Johnson, and I think a Tris Speaker, but other than those, I can't think of any others (except for the ones T206Collector mentions). Even with Cobb, the known signed T206s of him may well be in the single digits.

It may be a good indication, that of the Christy Mathewson signatures I've seen, I can't remember ever seeing a T206 signed by him.

I wonder, and I suppose they would be well known if they did exist, but does anyone know of a signed T206 Eddie Plank or Honus Wagner?

Another indication of baseball cards not being used for autographs until after WWII, might be the fact that the only N172 I recall hearing about, is a Connie Mack. Heck, with all the Babe Ruth autographs around, you don't see his Goudey cards signed by him.

Oh YEA!!!!!

You are correct, they are out there, but not that many relative to the amount of Ruth signatures in total.
