Cy Blanton (RIP 1945) - Is there any autograph baseballs of him?
 
He was with the Pirates and Phillies in the 30's and 40's and died in 1945. I've seen papers, books, and index cards signed but no baseballs.

Would his signature be more valuable by himself or with one of his teams?

Would his signature being on a baseball in the sweet spot make it much more valuable than others due to scarcity?

I tried looking him up in SMR but couldn't find it.

Thanks for the help.

I currently have one on e-bay , its a cut and bidding is at about $26.00

Blanton had one of the best rookie starts of all time and ended up dying in a mental hospital. For a player that died young he's not impossible or super expensive. Chance of finding him on team signed ball...excellent , single signed ball ? Slim and none and slim is out of town.
