This is a project I started at the very end of 1989. Donald Honig's Baseball in the '30's. I got 75 autographs in it myself:

Here is a letter sent back by harry Danning agreeing to sign it for me. I sent it through the mail so many times that the binding came loose and my dad had to fix it. After about a dozen times sending it in I got wise and started mailing the players ahead of time asking them if they would sign it. Only Dolph Camilli refused.

Baseball Tips by Billy Sullivan. Signed by Billy Sullivan (son of the T206er) and Clarence Fieber, from the 1934 AA Milwaukee team
![]() Fieber only pitched 13 innings for Milwaukee in 1934. He pitched in the PCL for Oakland when he was 18 and 19 in 1932 and 1933. Despite pitching early at this high level, he never pitched in the majors.

Thanks to Scott & Scott as well as Mighty Bombjack for your kind words regarding the Hodges signature. It took me a couple of years to find a nice signature of his. He is tough. A lot of his signatures are tiny cuts in pencil from programs. Also, being a Mets fan it had to be something signed from my favorite team, therefore, eliminating the Dodgers and Senators. When I finally found it, it was a great moment.

Veeck as in Wreck is one of my all time favorite books as well Rick. Max, Baseball the Fan's Game signed by Mickey Cochrane is the one item I regret selling, but still enjoy seeing it when it surfaces. I sold my signed copy back in 1989 when I was in college and needed the money(sold for $150). My father gave it to me when I was 12 and he thought that my grandmother had it signed by Mickey at a book signing at the J.L. Hudson Bookshop in Detroit. Though I still kick myself over the sale because of the family connection, the book was a beginning to a life long appreciation for the history of baseball and collecting baseball memorabilia. Sorry the files are so big.
