Years ago ebay seller KHW had/ and still has many Red Sox contracts signed by Eddie Collins. There was one in particular that caught my eye. The agreement was for the purchase of a few players from Louisville to Boston. One of the players was Otey Clark. Otey is someone from my hometown who I got to know. Otey only played one season in the majors. It may have been the only contract that resulted in his call up. I didn't buy it and still kicking myself for not. The contract sold and I have this fear it was destroyed for a cut or a cut card.
Even in bulk, each contract is still unique to somebody.
