ID help needed for a bunch of autos
17 Attachment(s)
A friend of mine who does online auctions acquired a bunch of balls and has had a tough time identifying them. I've figured out some of these but have no idea on most. The one with Ron Swoboda I can't figure out who the other signer is. Also, in looking at it as I'm writing this, I think the 6th one is Jose Mercedes (number 31). Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

5th picture is Hunter Pence
|
Next to last picture is Cubs/Dodger Rick Monday.
|
#4 John Roseboro
#7 might be Fernando Vina #12 Steve Karsay #16 Rick Monday |
Penmanship is a lost art form.
|
Here are my opinions:
1 Manny Mota 3 a hurried Maury Wills? 4 John Roseboro 5 Hunter Pence 10 Ryan Klesko 11 Steve Yeager 16 Rick Monday 17 Ron Swoboda Cleon Jones....I guess this only by association of the 1969 Mets outfield Hope I have helped |
Fourth from bottom looks like Rod Carew.
|
You guys are incredible. I think I also figured out Jason Isringhausen next to Rod Carew.
|
#2 looks like a sloppy Jose Canseco
|
I'm not sure that is Carew, but next to that one is Jim Wynn. Below "Carew" might be Steve Karsay, former A's pitcher. One under Vina kinda sorta looks like Jim Bibby but is a stretch. Even further stretch is below that one could be an early, sloppy Randy Johnson.
|
#3 is Dante Bichette
|
Amazing - only numbers 8 and 9 are left unidentified. 9 could be Jim Bibby, but it doesn't look like other autographs of his that I've seen.
|
Could #9 be Joe Gibbs, the NFL coach and HOFer ? It doesn't look anything like his post- HOF induction signature, but could it be from an earlier period ?
Just a thought. I know he has signed baseballs in the past for collectors. |
