1927 Yankees Autographed 8x10 Photo

[JimStinson]

Don't know who owns the original these days but I happened to come across this photo the other day.
Old Time Collector Bill Zekus gave me a copy and no I never owned the original. But Thought it would be helpful to post as an example.

I had his copy made into 8x10's and I used to give these out whenever I would have a speaking engagement regarding old autographs and after I finished the Q&A session
"How do you know an autograph is real ?" ,
"How Much is my Pete Rose worth"? ,
I would hand these out as gifts at the end and there was always a STAMPEDE !!! to get them. I guess cause they were free anyway I always thought it was the finest 1927 Yankees piece I ever saw.

Look how carefully the original was signed--the entire top row at pretty much the same angle, and virtually no overlaps. I know one member here who's gonna cry "foul."

BTW, I saw a photocopy of this photo in one of the files at the HoF library. Perhaps they own the original.

I'll cry foul. Am I the only one that finds it interesting that Hooks Wiltse could not spell his own name?

David, just tell us who you are trying to pick a fight with. I mean, as long as it's obvious that you are trying to dredge one up, you might as well put on your gloves and come out in the ring. Was there just too much peace in your life?

Wow....Wow
Do you have a large scan file of it you could send me as well?
I would love to print it and hang in the mancave.

I only have the one copy left and didn't even know I had it until yesterday but if anyone would like a better scan e-mail me and will send the original scan I used for this post if that works
