Ichiro Autographs

Does anyone know what to look for?

I see a lot of 'jumbled messes' - many different 'jumbled messes'.

I'm trying collect all living Hall-of-Famers and try to get them before they are elected, but I don't want to pay big money for anything like these:

His auto from 2001 when he first came over from japan was a lot better. You should look for his early signature.

You can find earlier ones. Mill Creek still does private signings. you will get the same signature you posted but on whatever you choose to send them. If you search a long time you might be able to find one he signed before the US. I have a very near I. Suzuki very neatly signed in a 1993 Hawaii Baseball league yearbook and a card signed while he was on Orix Blue Wave but it took me years to find them. His sweetspot signed card from 2002 might be your best bet https://www.ebay.com/itm/Ichiro-Suzu...frcectupt=true
There is a 2004 also but signature has deteriorated by then

I could be persuaded to part with this Japanese rookie. PM me if interested:

It still looks like garbage

the rookie card posted is a contemporary autograph, not an early one, great card tho
