Hank Greenberg baseball help

I have been offered a signed Hank Greenberg baseball. It is an American League Bobby Brown baseball with a Haiti stamp. These baseballs were produced from 1985�1989. Therefore, it would had to have been signed in 1985 or 1986 by Greenberg before his death. Does anyone know if he was actively signing autographs during those years? Thanks.

Hello.....he signed a bunch of stuff in 1983 when the Detroit franchise retired his and Gehringers uniform numbers in a ceremony at Tiger Stadium....I have seen signed letters also around that time so I think that is very possible....

If I remember correctly, he battled cancer the last year of his life, but I never heard anything about him not signing and never saw any labored sigs.
