Cochrane letter to his wife and a neat Creepy Crespi note written while convalescing from his broken leg, I believe. I love the "Hello, Postman" on top.

Did Captain Greenberg censor his own mail??
OT: Friend of mine's father was a censor. I guess it was a pretty unpopular job, but he always remembered the time he rejected a guy's letters. When the guy stormed in to confront him, he calmly showed him how he had put a letter meant for his wife into the girlfriend's envelope and vice versa! |

I have always assumed that as an officer he could do that.

My lone WWII item is a 1945 (approx) US Navy multi-signed ball. From my research it has the following signers:
Sweet Spot: None Panel 1: Mickey Vernon (Senators, Indians, Red Sox), Del Ennis (Phillies, Cardinals), Mike Budnick (Giants) Panel 2: Lou Tost (Boston Braves, Pirates), Sherry Robertson (Senators, A's), Fred Chapman (A's), Manny Fernandez (catcher, NAS Honolulu Crossroaders Hawaii 1945), Gil "Gibby" Brack (Brooklyn Dodgers, Phillies) Panel 3: Connie Ryan (Giants, Braves, Reds), Steve "Red' Tramback (5 ABs for 1940 NY Giants) Panel 4: Bud Blattner (St Louis Cardinals, Giants, Phillies, later announcer for Browns, Cardinals, Angels, Royals), Red McQuillen (St Louis Browns), Frank Wolf (?), Dick West (Reds) Ball: Official League; has U.S.N. stamping |

Pretty sure that's Nanny Fernandez, the Boston Brave. Nice ball! Is it part of your sale?
