The contract features Ed Barrow's signature, along with 2 signatures from Negro League Executive Gus Greenlee, which was what drove my interest in particular.

I've been looking for a Greenlee signature for years and had never seen one in the wild until I came across this document.
Wow, where my two focuses collide!
