Huh! Interesting. So yeah, maybe he was a spokeperson for Easton in those days and would mail this back to kids who asked for his autograph. It's funny that the signature is in a different spot in all these examples. Maybe it was a stamp?

Yup, I'd guess it's a stamp.

Those are Yankees' mail response TI's from the 1970s into the 1980s. They were these small photos with the prestamped autos. I wrote to some players in 1976-77 and got them. When I last found a trove of them at a show a decade or so ago they were mostly $2 per on up to about $10 for Munson and Jackson.

$2 to $10 boy times have changed.

What do you think would be a reasonable asking price nowadays?

p.s. If anybody is interested, let me know

Not a clue; I haven't even looked for them in years since I loaded up at that show. I basically completed my 1976-78 lineups and that was that for me.

Here's a Guidry that some dummy thinks is actually signed, for $9.99 plus shipping: 384805257222



And another MENSA member offering three for $41.99 as "signed". 265568576414



And another "signed" Guidry, this time at $19.99



This one is listed for $9.97



This one accurately says "facsimile" and is $11.95



Among the sold listings a group of 10 from 1981 with Jackson (2), Guidry and Winfield (2) went for $1.75 at auction plus $2.22 to ship.



So, not a lot of value there.
