One of my customers pulled a Napoleon (Larry) Lajoie cut signature from Legendary Cuts. I knew of the tremendous prices his 1933 Goudey card have realized, but I didn't really know all that much about him. This article gives a little history of Lajoie, and also contains a link to a neat YouTube dead ball era photo display.
