Since this is the autograph section of the Net 54, I thought I'd share a couple of interesting Ralph Kiner checks from my collection.

First, a check in the amount of $1,062 and change which I found interesting because when he wrote the amount of the check in words, he wrote "Ten hundred..." instead of "One thousand..."




Here's what has got to be one of the greatest Ralph Kiner checks ever written - it has not one, but FOUR signatures. It's signed "Ralph M. Kiner" twice on the front (as payee and signatory) and twice on the back (in the endorsement: "To be deposited in the account of Ralph M. Kiner Putnam Trust Co Ralph M. Kiner").
