What signature would you like to add to your collection in 2014?

[djson1]

I would like to find a dual signed baseball by only Juan Marichal and Warren Spahn. I know there are many balls out there where both have signed along with others (like HOF, '65 Giants, and all-star balls), but I want one where only they both signed the sweetspot (if possible).

. . . Detroit Tigers ballplayers on my want list (at a price I deem reasonable).

2013 was an outstanding year for my collection as I successfully added five autographs from my want list. Given the obscurity of most of the names on that list (or infrequency of the not-so-obscure), even crossing off one wanted autograph during the course of a calendar year is reason to celebrate.

Just a small sampling of some the names I still need (these have more recent deceased-dates):

Buy a Spahn SS ball and add Marichal. Done deal!

Yeah, I've been trying to do that, but I haven't seen too many shows where Marichal was signing in my area (southern Cali). When I googled him a few times in the past, I can't find any shows where he is even signing at.

Marichal is one of the most prolific signers these days. He's always at the National, so he should be in Cleveland this year. If you don't get it signed before the National, I might be willing to help you with that.
