Default The Glory of Their Times
I really love the book, and credit it with inspiring pre-war card collectors everywhere to have the remaining living deadball stars autograph their cards.

Rube and Sno used to respond to autograph requests by recommending that collectors buy the book:





I have a signed T206 of every T206 player that was in the book, except Lobert. Just haven't ever had the chance to buy one, although I know they exist and have a black and white scan of one.

Does that mean you have a T206 signed by George Gibson? If so, I would love to see a scan of it, if you're willing. Or are you talking about the original printing [as opposed to the 1984 re-issue that, according to wikipedia, was expanded to include Gibson and 3 others]?

Either way, your signed T206 collection rocks, as does this book

Regards,

Richard.

I do not include the 1984 re-issue. It would be great if I had a Gibson, but I've never even heard of one.

Well that's unfortunate. I have never heard of one either, but sure would love to see one. Of course, the up side of this is that I still don't have to come to terms with knowing one exists that I'll never own

Thanks for the response.

Richard.

Patrick,

From what I've seen of your collection, you've locked up some not-so-common Gibson stuff [presumably a function of the number of years you've been collecting them]. If anyone had seen an auto'd Gibson other than T206Collector, I'd have been banking on you.

Thanks for chiming in!

Regards,

Richard.
