March Autograph Pickups...
Happy to kick off this month. This weekend I picked up a Grover Cleveland letter and a William McKinley cut (from board member Kirk)...I also picked up sermon notes from C.H. Spurgeon (not pictured)...

Picked up a Ruth Sinclair oil contest ball. Had always wanted one but not found one in condition I liked until now.

Flawless 1962 Pirates team signed ball with super early Stargell plus the very tough Diomedes Olivo. No Clemente on the ball so I didn't have to spend a ton.

Undoubtedly this was signed for someone special that had direct connections with the players it's so nicely signed. |

1925 'Coaching' by Knute Rockne. Personal copy of Father Matthew Walsh, Notre Dame's President 1922-28 who made the 'Fighting Irish' nickname official in 1927. Rockne added 'Mathew' as an afterthought and misspelled it.
Auction mentioned 'fragments of the dust jacket', but no pics. I found a good background for the parts included, and put them in a dust jacket. Added mylar sleeve over signed page.

Not a very intrisically valuable signature, but one that holds some significance.
This is the signature of Cady Wells. He was a well known southwestern painter and friend of Georgia O’Keefe. His paintings can sell well into the five figures. More importantly, he is my wife’s great-uncle. His brother Mason was also a painter, based in San Francisco. This signature goes along well with the other items from her family I have been able to acquire: A handwritten letter I recently purchased of her great-great-grandfather, one of the founders of American Optical Co. and several handwritten letters by Richard Henry Dana, author of ‘Two Years Before the Mast’ and after whom she is named (middle name is Dana).

Thanks! I was like a kid at christmas today when it showed up. I took photos opening the box because I thought the price was a little too good to be true so I thought there might be a nerf ball in there or something. Happy when the ball and JSA cert were there together.

1972 score card with Fergie Jenkins auto on front and ticket stub and paper clipping inside.
What's unique is it was Jenkins 150th win and his last HR he hit in his career. Career HR #13 (Not real sure who the other auto is)
