Show & Tell: Autographed Pre-War Cards

[Bpm0014]

For the most part, T206s were signed in the 1960's-early 1970's I believe.....

Ian, the Joe D stands out, but really you showed a lot of awesome cards! The Diamond Stars, the Fellers....

Had this one a while - may be going to the BST with it soon. You dont see many autographed 207s...

Yeah, that's my sense of it. I'm guessing that very few people were collecting autographs on cards at the time T206s were out.

I'm wondering when it became a thing people really began to collect/seek them. Maybe in the 1950s with Topps/Bowman cards.

Thanks for the compliment Dan... and great T207 Carey Chris! That's such a great looking card regardless, but very cool to see a signed one.

Since I'm hoping to see what else may be out there, I'll bump with a few more (many coming from a board member).

Some great posts so far.

As many know, I collect the 1934 goudey set exclusively. In the past year, I was able to add 3 new ones to my set and am now sitting at 79 of 96. I also added a couple of doubles to trade or sells for ones I need. If anyone has any PLMK.







The 2 to trade/sell

I've asked this elsewhere, but I can't get anyone to respond. I am not sure if this is signed by Steen. I know the letter is handwritten by him, but I just can't say one way or the other if the writing on the card is a match or not. Seems close to me, what do you guys think? Will anyone please give me a guess? Sorry, I hope I don't high-jack your thread.
