Opinions needed on an Earle "Greasy" Neale Auto

Reese3333

I typically do not buy anything that hasn't already been graded by PSA/DNA, but I got this for a good price. It looks good to me in comparison to others I've seen, but I am not an expert. Please let me know what you think!

Thanks

Randy, didn't Neale also play on the Reds 1919 WS team.

Yes he did. He had several decent seasons with the Reds

I found it interesting, aside from all the football accomplishments, that he was an outfielder that batted .357 during the infamous "Black Sox" World Series of 1919.

Reese,

That looks good to me. A little shakier than his earlier signatures so I would guess he signed that one later in life.

Thanks Ken!

Thank you all very much for the advice. I am sending this signature to Knuckles who is going to make me a card out of it. I didn't want to have it authenticated, then send it to him and have him crack it out of the case, and then submit it again when the card was finished. I will be sure to post pics when he is done!
