Thanks Jeff! I didn't think anyone was going to reply! Collecting umpires isn't exactly the rage right now.
I was elated when I ran across the Cal Hubbard HoF photo. He dies a short year later after his induction. I don't think there are a lot of HoF autographed items of his out there.
Interesting thread on your line up cards. I've read through it. I have some, I think they are all Athletics - some signed. When LaRussa was doing his part to help the humane society while in Oakland, he would auction off signed line up cards and donate all the proceeds. I don't think it got much press, but good for LaRussa.
