October Autograph Pickups

[Teamgluck]

I am in awe over that Vic Willis what an outstanding pickup.

PS: Jose Mendez "The Black Diamond" had a signed ball recently appear in a legendary auctions auction and was sold for what I believe to be below value. The only one that is 100% so far non existing as of now is Frank Grant.

Amazing Willis. Considering he owned and operated a Hotel I am surprised there are not more signed documents out there.

If that was the multi-signed ball that was barely legible that you're talking about, many experienced collectors still think that a true Mendez doesn't exist.

I have no faith in that Mendez ball, Coincidentally that ball has been on the market twice in a span of a few years so I feel the purchasers once getting it and looking closer also get disillusioned about it being Mendez.

Damn that Willis has me drooling on the keyboard

I just picked up an original Mel Parnell early 1950's signed photo with a great shot of Fenway in the background.

Nearing the end of his career in baseball in 1956, Parnell threw a no-hitter on July 14, 1956.

Kind of embarrassed to post after the Willis post. Unfortunately, autograph is framed and glass above it has some type of gunk on it that I just can't get off.

Fairly recent additions for me. Nothing special but am glad to add to my HOF collection. The Banquet program is a bit rough but I think its cool...also includes a couple early DiMaggio signatures. I think i'm around 213 so way behind the rest of ya! Also picked up James' Klem and Wallace (Thanks James) at a good price.
