Cool autograph Book

[yanks12025]

Not sure if anyone else here saw this auction or won it. But a cool autograph book. I'm guessing the John Unitas may be one of the earliest autos of his. What you guys think?

Very cool. I think the photograph of Johnny U is one of the coolest parts about this lot. I love old snap shots like that.

. . . as it seems like they are becoming scarcer than hen's teeth to find. It's always refreshing when one pops up from time to time.

Dang, didn't see this auction and now I kinda wish I had given the reasonable hammer price. That's a really, really cool book.

I have a hand-me down of one of these, with a red cover, but the same various pastel paper inside. It's also got vintage Colts autographs. Is it unique to Baltimore or were they sold nationwide?

They were sold nationwide and I have owned a number of them including ones loaded with baseball and ones loaded with entertainment stars and once in a while a book with baseball and entertainment.
Great thrill to flip through one of these and find Humphrey Bogart or a vintage Mantle.
