Let's just make a slight adjustment ... let's make that 99%, and that would include me.

Not only that, he signed it twice ... something that couldn't be done with his tribute card.

The tribute card is nice, and a collectable, but it doesn't have the historical vintage baseball connection that an unsigned 1931 Harrison Studio PC would have.
