I would have to say Buck Weaver or if I had to pick a Hall of Famer it would be Lou Gehrig. I would also be very interested in a early teens team signed Red Sox ball from one of the World Series they won.

I'd love to have a ball or photograph signed by Frankie Zak (ss, Pirates 1944-46), he was a close family friend back in Passaic, NJ.

Like most of you, I think I would go for a clean Gehrig. However, I don't even think I would want a single signed ball. I know that they're the most appealing to most folks for display purposes, but I would be even happier to have one signed by the team. If that was the case, I'd go for the '36 or '37 group.
I think the one single signed baseball I would love to get my hands on (and I would imagine that it wouldn't carry a crazy price tag) would be a vintage Carl Hubbell. I don't know what it is about that man, but I've always gravitated to his career and exploits. Heck, those Giants teams of '36 and '37 weren't too bad either... Graig

especially from David and Jay in going after the "Best Wishes Jimmy" signed by Lou Gehrig postcard that is in Memory Lane's current auction, I never said it was my dream "Piece"... only my dream autograph.
Anyone that has seen my threads can see my clear passion is for vintage original TYPE I photographs of top-tier HOF players. I enjoy collected autographs but mainly for the purpose of framing with some of my best photos. I'm sure this probably sounds nuts to most of you, but I wouldn't sell any of my top photos in order to raise the dough needed to win the Gehrig auto. So with my perpetual spending spree, combined with my oldest daughter recently tying the knot, I surmised that I will most likely fall short for the Gehrig piece. As the brilliant Steven Wright once said: You can't have everything. Where would you put it? Best regards, Jimmy |

I have 2 Gehrigs- one in an autograph book that I am keeping and one cut mounted with a picture that I might consider trading. I would want a signed vintage card of Cobb, Wagner, Johnson or someone like that to even consider it. If you have something like that send a scan to theshleps@aol.com. If I like it I can send a gehrig scan back. Otherwise I would rather not go to the safe and try to dig it out. Emails only

hey Vintagedegu, what non sports auto's are on your list....I'm a huge floyd fan as well and like your syd avatar. Unfortunately I don't have a lot of funds to support my collection so my list would seem rather shallow...It would be nice to get some of the toughies I need to complete my '34 Cardinal collection namely Clarence Heise and Bill Delancey. A more immediate would be a nice Tris Speaker cut of whom I think has one of the nicest sigs in the Hall of Fame.

I'd like a Lou Gehrig signed document from his days of employ with the parole board in New York City. He reportedly used a stamp in his waning days...I'd even take one of those.
