Hi Andrew,
That's an interesting question. I do own the autographs of the home plate umpire for many of Nolan Ryan's milestones including his 7 no-hitters.
I also own the autographs of both home plate umpires for Vander Meer's consecutive no-hitters.
This vintage signed prescription pad of a physician in Cincinnati captured both George Magerkurth and Bill Stewart on a single page. Both umpires officiated both of Vandy's no-hitters.
