Negro League Autograph Help (Frank Duncan)

[BillyCoxDodgers3B]

In the early days of the internet, I happened to bump into H. Thompson's daughter, who was then only in her 30s. A very nice woman who was kind to fill me in on her Dad's final years. He had a rough go of life after the limelight but was trying to atone for his past. Unfortunately, he didn't have much of a chance to see things through, as a massive heart seizure felled him.

Thank you!

Built a small collection around this tour (have 4 different kinds of programs from the games, including one program from towards the end of tour with Jackie Robinson in the lineup after the teams started evolving and changing.)

Was excited to come across this before noticing the Duncan autograph. I couldn't find another comp, so know it's fairly rare, though don't know whether he's a big enough name to add significant value.

It does seem like he had turned his life around. Sad story.

Comparing it to Kevin’s example it’s right on the money. He says that example is from a notorized item.
