Pretty sure this card was in that auction!
In fact, I went in with 2 other collectors and bought several lots. We kept some and sold some. I actually kept one of the obscure St Louis team cards but wound up trading it together with others for an obscure Honus Wagner RPPC.
Had I seen this card on your table I would have purchased it...!

Thanks so much for chiming in, Robert. Yes, you are remembered and always in a good light.
Can't wait for the next National to see everyone again. Hoping to go to my least favorite venue again
...and I know others love AC...but whatever
So the fact this was being auctioned with many other Block Bros. postcards means it is not handwritten letters on the postcard. They looked printed on to me but I was unsure. Very cool. I would love to see any other single player cards out there, if any members have one. Our community is fairly large...
So the question remains whether or not the autograph is legit? I have no clue but here is a 400dpi scan of it. It looks written over or something.....
