I think he is a pretty tough signature. Also, not particularly popular among Yankees fans, I think.
Nice pick up Sean. His wife was a North and I have never heard a good thing about one of them.

1. Your use of currency as a TTM medium is interesting. Any particular reason why?

2. I couldn't tell you based on the signature, but there is speculation that Shaq's father and other family members have been ghost signing his TTM mail for the past couple of years. I do know most of the Shaq submissions in the past few bulk subs I have been a part of were labeled questionable. You never know though..

I choose the currency because it is inexpensive and different. there are so many diff types and I just think it looks cool. I would be open to listening to others who have submitted Shaq TTM's and came back questionable.

Started on a historiography about Powers a couple semesters ago but couldn't fish out a story that already hadn't been told so went a different direction. Great pick up David, thanks for sharing.

Charles "Cy" Rigler-

Purchased this prior to the HOF finalist list coming out as a rider, probably the next umpire to be elected to the HOF. Credited for being the first umpire to use hand signals and yelling strike calls, not to mention umpiring the first All Star Game and 10 World Series. Purchased from a fellow board member.

Great Rigler autograph. A scarce signature and a great addition to your impressive collection as well as a good gamble on a future HOFer.
