Perfect Game Pitchers Collections

[MooseDog]

Issac - nice idea.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but I think at least 5 of those aren't signed by the pitcher's they represent:

Koufax
Bunning
Hernandez
Cone
Rogers

I could be wrong. Rogers is near impossible to get.

Is Kenny Rogers that tough now? I got him a bunch of times at Tigers spring training when he was on the team.

Wow. He sells for a lot on eBay. I had no idea.

The thing with The Gambler is that he infrequently does paid signings. The last time he did, his asking price was somewhere around $125. The Rogers ball that was posted on this thread features an extremely long "y" and "g" that I am not familiar with either. I have managed to get Rogers' sig once while on the Rangers and twice while on the Tigers. None of these sigs looked like the one on the ball.

Isaac,

I would agree with Packs that a couple of the perfect game pitchers mentioned appear to be "drawn" on some of these balls, not signed. Further due diligence would be helpful.

I'm with you that this is a fun theme to collect since the number of perfect game pitchers Don Larsen and beyond is definitely attainable.

Here are a few perfect game pitcher sigs that I received in person, just as a means of comparison.

I hope this helps.

Scott - I know this is getting repetitive at this point, but I'll say, once again, that love that Koufax signed ticket!

Thanks Mark. I really love the way the ticket turned out too.
I've actually owned the stub since the mid 1990's and it's one of my favorites in my collection.

It came out of a collection of 15 no-hit and perfect game tickets that I acquired and was the crown jewel. This same collection also contained a ticket stub from Jim Bunning's perfect game in 1964 that was vintage signed in ball point pen in the 1960's.
