1884 Baseball Autograph Album, Only one Problem
Posted By: Rhys
This is a really amazing item that I thought you guys would like to see. 1884 Autograph album filled with Baseball Autographs. Only one problem though; aside from the fact they appear to be signed in ballpoint pen and several by the same hand, several of these players are well documented to have been completely illiterate yet they somehow have signed nice scripted (20th century looking) signatures. Although one example of Pete Brownings signature can be viewed, it is speculated that it was signed by someone else, and Fred Dunlap was absolutely illiterate and could neither read nor even write his name.
