Picked up Butch Schmidt in Clean Sweep auction. Well known as member of the Miracle Braves, more interesting to me is that he played 1 game for NYAL n 1909

Are those snapshots Victor Starfin? If so 😯!

Many years ago I started building an autograph collection of the 1971 Pirates. I wanted a comprehensive collection that was comprised of the manager, coaches, and every player who wore the uniform for at least one game. I also wanted to collect the Team President, GM, Trainer, clubhouse manager, team physician, team photographer, the Traveling Secretary, and the owner. There were 50 autographs I needed to accomplish this. The first 46 were relatively easy. However It took many years to find the final four. In the last few weeks I finally landed John Galbreath (Owner) Tom Fitzpatrick (Traveling Sec.)
John Hallahan (Clubhouse mngr) and Dr. John Finegold (Team Physican). These are the only examples I have seen of these autographs. Im also certain that I was the only fool hunting for them on a daily basis for the past 4 years.
