August Autograph Pickups

[Klrdds]

End the month on a good note.
1.A 1931 GPC signed by Bill Terry. It is the earliest single signed Terry item I have seen, signed at Spring Training March 1931. All of my others are from the 60s, 70s and early 80s.
2. The 1919 Cleveland Indians Team Signed Baseball from Heritage Auctions at The National. I purchased it to get the Ray Chapman signature. I have looked for a Chapman signature for 20 + years and have see none. I have seen this ball sold twice before and figured bid on it and the third time might be lucky. So this is my Chapman until a flat item comes my way.
Happy Collecting.

Andrew,

For years he owned a butcher shop or a similar shop in Belmont. You could walk in and he would be there at the counter. I grew up next town over in Waltham.
