Question about 1962-63 Topps Baseball Signed cards
 

Hey all:

We acquired a collection recently that is pretty amazing.

It was a kid's autograph collection from 1959 to 1964. It contains around 3,000 autographs.

My question is this:

The collection has 200 1963 and 100 1962 Topps signed. Mostly commons, with a few stars. Is there anyone to keep an eye out for or particularly rare signatures of the time?

I ask because, for example, we found two early 1960s Topps Willie Galimore football cards autographed in it, and since he was killed in an accident in 1964, it is a very rare autograph on a card.

Anyway, just looking for some help. The other thing we have lots of is early 1960s NFL signed cards (and a ton of CFL too).

Thanks in advance.

As a rule, keep an eye out for guys who died in the 1960s/1970s. Ken Hubbs was the first one I thought of, also Fred Hutchinson and Johnny Keane. If you post some pictures, or list who you have, other members more knowledgeable than me about those years can help point out the tough signers.
