FS - Gehrig, Lazzeri and Dickey Signed Newspaper Photos
 

I have for sale a newspaper clipping signed by Gehrig, Lazzeri and Dickey. A bit about this piece - it came from my father's collection and based on his notes, was originally purchased by him in a Oregon Trail auction in 1993. It appears that the newspaper was trimmed and adhered to a thicker-stock piece of paper, most likely a scrapbook page. It also seems that the piece was signed before it was trimmed and adhered, since a small portion of the Dickey signature is cut off. In total, the piece measures approximately 6.5" x 4".

This piece has never been sent in for authentication. I posted it on the Board (see the thread here: http://www.net54baseball.com/showthread.php?t=269825) and the consensus I received in the thread and also via PM is that the piece is authentic. That said, I will of course absolutely stand behind the authenticity, and if whoever purchases this wants to have Richard Simon, PSA/DNA, JSA, etc review the piece, I will gladly refund the purchase price if the signatures were deemed to be anything but 100% authentic. So why am I not authenticating it myself - 2 reasons. First, I trust the opinion of the Board as much and more than any of the big authenticators. Second, I've spoken with my mother, and at this time the cost of authentication is just not something she wants to bear.

Looking for $3400 OBO. I will also include a letter to the purchaser setting forth the purchase price and attesting to the fact that I will refund the purchase price if the piece was ever deemed to not be authentic.

Don't hesitate to send me any questions. Thanks!

Bump - reduced to $3400.
