Of all the great cards (and I mean that sincerely) on this thread, the '34 Gehrig just about made me fall out of my chair. It may be my favorite card of all. Thanks for sharing.

It is the baseball historian in me, but I got goosebumps seeing that Chase card with the comment by Meyers. I'll probably lie awake tonight thinking about the circumstances under which the card and the Chief came together.
If it was mine, I don't believe I'd try to get it authenticated. If it wasn't Meyers I wouldn't want to know.

Bob, I agree. When one considers how history has marginalized Chase so much, to read how his contemporaries almost universally praised him as the best first baseman of his era, it truly is compelling. As for the writing, it is almost surely that of Meyers (or a very good forgery) based on known samples.

I totally think it is Meyers. I have a signature or two of his that resembles the lettering perfectly. I also think it would be wholly disappointing to find out it was Jason Timothy Mathews -- local softball hero.

It's Meyers. What more do you need?
