Your dream baseball autograph?

Two answers...
Ultimate dream sig is Christy Mathewson across the bottom on one of those sideways cards with the arm out and sunrise in the background. Might have to sell my family into slavery for that one. I'll miss them.

More reasonable is to complete my signed 34 Goudey set. I've seen both Gehrigs, Arky Vaughn, even a Frank Grube (D 1946), but I think the most difficult will be Steve Larkin. I'm sure I'll find the HOFers over time, but this guy only played 2g ever. Both in 1934. Started and finished one game. 6IP, 8so, 1er, W-L 0-0, and 1 SB. When you look up the phrase "cup of coffee in the bigs" it shows a picture of him. He died in 1969 in Norristown, PA. Who in the world got this guys autograph, much less on a 1934 Goudey? Oh well.

I have a 3X5 of Larkin, although I've never seen a signed '34 Goudey. From what I recall, Larkin actually died on a train. He was bound somewhere for work (insurance business, I think) when he succumbed to a heart attack.

Im next to positive I have seen a signed Steve Larkin 34. From the 33's I have I can asssure you that a 34 larkin does exist.
My dream autograph would be a t202 signed by Hal Chase and a Earl Clark signed 1933 goudey. Yeah, like that will happen.
