How to acquire a Hank Aaron in person Autograph

[bigfanNY]

I was looking on Ebay and found a smaller 1967 Poster Aaron With a period Aaron Signature and a Best Wishes inscription for half what a current Signature would have cost. So I pulled the trigger on that. It is in a Beckett holder and will look great on my wall. I had an Aaron, Sphan, Matthews ( Top of 1961 Braves yearbook) in a PSA holder I wanted to display but the holder size made it tough to find a good spot. So happy to get this

My favorite era of Aaron:

1967 topps poster Signed by Aaron not my oldest Aaron. That would be a ball that he signed Henry during spring training 1954. Based on research I did ball was signed in south carolina during series of games between the Braves and Red sox. They had played many exhibition games during the 52 years they both played in Boston. But in 1953 the travel made that difficult so in 54 the agreed to meet in SC just before seasons opening for a few games. Must not have worked financially because last time they did it. My first National leauge game was Mets Braves in 1968.

Vintage Aaron on a Feeney ball. Slam dunk authentic. $127 shipped.

This is why I will never understand those buying the horrid recent signatures on modern balls.

Totally agree. I got this one from the Net54 BST for around $100 I think.

I am not a Aaron expert...Assuming this is good... i wish i could get this on my bat as it is beautiful. Does anyone know what era this autograph is? I love the sweeping H.

Anyone know of any upcoming Aaron private signings?

Is he still signing any more?

I'm really confused as to how his sig could be so bad for a couple of years and now back to the way it was back in the 90's. Was he sick for awhile, or was mass signings affecting his sig? Gotta believe it was maybe both, and maybe that's why his fee is so much higher these days since he might not sign as many in a sitting. Inquiring minds want to know.

During the current World Series, Hank was present for the annual Hank Aaron award. In my eyes he was leaning on the podium quite hard for support. He is 85 years of age. I would never say never, but I would think his days of public signings are likely done. Then again, I thought after his stroke Ted Williams was done but John Henry Jr. wheeled Ted out there for the CSA Senators reunion back in 1998. I think Hank will continue to do private signings as he pleases and it will not be cheap.
