Randall,

I don't think I've ever seen a Thomas auto like that. Nice!

I'm pretty sure it was signed before he was drafted. Since the farther back you go the more complete the autograph. Plus all the ones I've seen when he was on the White Sox included his number. Also ball is from 1985-89. Bobby Brown A.L. haiti.

It's funny, because I was going to post a photo of my early Thomas ball, but Randall beat me to the punch. Great minds think alike, I guess...
Great examples, Randall!

That's a classic example of Big Frank from 1990 and earlier. He signed a ball for me with that signature during Spring Training of 1990. I got his sig at a paid signing in 1991 and his sig had evolved into Fr___ Th___35.
By 1991 his popularity had exploded and necessity is the mother of invention I suppose...
He abbreviated his sig because of the long lines of people that were waiting to get his autograph. One positive thing that I can tell you though is he was a signing machine during his most popular years. He always showed up at the stadium early prior to the game in Anaheim and would always sign for the fans...
