Early 1900's signature
 

I have a letter signed by Belden Hill who played for the Orioles in 1890. He wrote the letter in 1915. Obviously, Belden Hill wasn't a very good player and very few people ever heard of him but I was wondering if there are people who collect sigs of lesser known players like this and what the approximate value might be. Thank you for any help you can offer.

I think that is a great letter. I've been searching for a signature from Myron "Moose" Grimshaw for a while. He was a virtual unknown (but did appear in the T206 set) but lived in my hometown in upstate NY so always collected his items.

There will be good demand for a handwritten letter on personal stationary of anyone who played in the 1800s, even if he played for one game. He died in 1934 which will be his signature is tough.

Canjon,
By any chance are you from Canajoharie, NY.

Fort Plain actually. While Moose worked for Beachnut after retirement from the game, he resided in Fort Plain for a while and is buried in Ft. Plain.

You must be from the area as well? I'm sure you know that Dahlen lived in Nelliston. In fact, there is a street there named in his honor.

canjond and drc,
Thanks for the responses.
