16 Autographs on a ball

I have a baseball with 16 autographs that was donated to a charity auction by the Chicago Cubs. I can identify 10 of the 16 autographs and 7 of those are in the Hall of Fame. My question is how do I identify the 6 that I cannot figure out? Who does identifying, I'm sure they are all baseball players.

    Above Darrell Porter, is Roy Sievers
    Between Kessinger and Williams, could be a rushed Steve Garvey. Edited: It's actually Rico Carty.
    Below Perry, are Johnny Logan and Gary Matthews Sr.

    I believe the signature below Kessinger may be Rico Carty

    Post photos?

    Also, you might get more responses (if you post photos) if you post a thread in the Trading Cards and Memorabilia Forum since it's sports related.

  • Answering, I established Ron santo, Gaylord Perry, unknown, unknown, Andy Pafko, Dave Kingman, Ernie Banks, Fergie Jenkins, Don Kessinger, unknown, Billy Williams, J R Richard, Lou Brock, unknown, Darrell Porter, Jay Johnstone. Trying to figure the sig above Darrell Porter proverbs, trying to figure the two sigs below Gaylord Perry and trying to figure the sig below Don Kessinger and just above Billy Williams. pic 3,4 and 6 show the sigs I can not identify.

  • SDSportsFan that is spectacular help, thank you. I doubt I would have ever figured them all. I believe these were signed at the July 10, 1990 All Star game. The ball was donated by the Cubs for the Infant Welfare Society annual Charity formal. A little disappointed that the Ernie Banks signature faded so dramatically, it was clear and strong when I bought it. Thanks again.

  • Thanks to all on this group collaboration, in the end I think we have all the signatures nailed down. If any of your kids become MLB stars, tell them to write their name in manner that we can read it! :D
