June autograph pickups

[CooperstownExpert]

Judge Landis is pretty common but this letter has some content that really caught my eye. He mentions Walter Johnson, Christy Mathewson, and Mordecai Brown.

“Walter Johnson is one of the outstanding characters of the game. You can’t think of it without thinking of him,” Landis writes in the second paragraph. He continues, “Men like he (Johnson), Mathison (sic), and Old Mordecai Brown, and a host of others, made a real contribution to our society.”

The letter is now on display at CooperstownExpert.com, on the pages for Landis, The Big Train, Matty, and Three Finger. Each of those links will send you to their pages.

The collection there was featured on ESPN and has autographs of all but three Hall of Famers who debuted in the big leagues since 1900. It also has a couple hundred guys not in the Hall.

Picked up this ball from a guy that lived next to Wheat when he was a kid . Zach signed this ball for him in 1959 when he was 10 years old . Has been wrapped up since until I took off yesterday .

Picked up this Charles Deal - 2nd base for 1914 Miracle Braves. Made some good plays in the WS. Not expensive, but cool.
