    Not quite sure I recognize him. The arrowhead pin might be significant.

    Guessing that is a cursor that was captured with the image, but I could be wrong too.

    I collect Steve Garvey, Dodgers and signed cards. Collector since 1978.

    :D I'm sure you're right.

    Based on the suit I am guessing late 1970s or 1980s. Maybe a senator or governor.

    It's posts like these that really got me wanting to label all of my signed items in case I am not around to ID them for someone. Most of my stuff is alphabetized, but once someone starts pulling items out of their spots, it's a free for all. Some items may not be good to mark on the back, so adding a slip of paper helps, but those can be separated later as well.

    It's sad that so many items become mysteries later and with handwriting disappearing, trying to decipher a signature is a lost art.

    I would have guessed the same thing, some local/regional politician or maybe a local/regional TV/radio personality.

    I am starting to do the same thing. When I come across an indescipherable signature I am trying to label them.
