Help identifying 1938 Pirates autographs (3)

I agree with Steve on the first being Paul Waner. I would suggest Lee Handley for the second question mark, but I could be wrong.

That's the conclusion I just came too also. I can see "Handley" there, but there appear to be 2-3 too many letters in the first name for it to be "Lee", but it does bear a resemblance to Handley's signatures on ebay.

Yes, the "L" is similar and I could possibly see the last name being correct. But there's too much going on in the first name for it to be Lee. Looks like either an "a" an "o" or (a stretch) a "u". But there's definitely an ascender before what appears to be a capital H.

I'll keep digging. Thanks guys!

Handley signed with his middle initial which was E. Middle name was Elmer.
